Hey Daniel,

When you want to use this kind of configuration:

---internal---> | hn | VEID 1
---NIC 2----> | | VEID 2
---NIC 3----> | | VEID 3

And what you try is, f.e., to have the internal NIC only connecting to the
hn, and NIC 2 to VEID 3 and NIC 3 to VEID 2, then you probably will need to
route and firewall your config if you stick to venet.

Using a bridged setup would mean the same security implications as using the
setup above (firewalled). So that's not something to worry about.

If you've any questions, please let us know.

Esmé

Hi Esmé,

I've several nets:
1. internal service net, only available from/for the hostnode 2. internal
LAN with intranet services for my users 3. DMZ 4. external IPs

The host node should only be accessible in net 1, I don't want any routing
or firewalling inside the hn, there should be no connection f.e.
to net 4

In the mentioned article the are two advantages: security and
performance
