Hi all,
I couldn't see the following answered clearly in the literature, so I'll
ask it here.
When a freeBSD host is running a [anything] guest, a tap interface needs to be
created. Let's say I've done all this:
# ifconfig tap0 create
# sysctl net.link.tap.up_on_open=1
net.link.tap.up_on_open: 0 -> 1
# ifconfig bridge0 create
# ifconfig bridge0 addm igb0 addm tap0
# ifconfig bridge0 up
I want to add another tap, I don't want to restart the host. If I do
# ifconfig bridge0 addm tap1
then configure another vm to use tap1, can I expect it to work? Or, If I want 2
vns with 2 taps, do I need to do this:
# ifconfig bridge0 create
# ifconfig bridge0 addm igb0 addm tap0 addm tap1
# ifconfig bridge0 up
The reason I ask, is because I'm expecting a freebsd vm to work on tap1, and it's
not.
thanks,
