Hi,
Quote:


Just the N interfaces for N vservers nothing more


What's wrong with that?



Nothing Wink I just thought it would be wrong.

There is only one venet available?


Yes, venet is a special interface that is able to filter network packets. When a network packet reaches it the venet driver determine what VE this packet intends for.

So this means I can use venet only when I have all VEs in the same subnet?


No.



Small question concerning venet [1]: So venet is just one device on the VE0 which may contain multiple L3 IP networks? And the system routes the packets automatically to the appropriate interface on VE0? So venet works only if the VE0 is in the same subnet as the VEs (or with complex routing configuration)?

[1] I could not find a part in the WIKI where this device is explained so that I understand it. The one things I read are "It's relly simple to setup"
