Hi,

I've used http://wiki.openvz.org/Using_NAT_for_VE_with_private_IPs to give my VEs internet access, great it works. Now i want to create a private LAN between all the VEs (since some people want to do things like NFS) but not using their current ips since i monitor internet->ve and ve->internet traffic.

I've looked at http://wiki.openvz.org/Virtual_Ethernet_device but it doesnt seem to hint as to how to do that. Can anybody help?

thanks a lot.

edit:

i read the guide http://wiki.openvz.org/Virtual_Ethernet_device again and i got a small lan between the hn and a ve, however, i get this error when i want to add another ve to the lan

[root@hostnode] vzctl set 102 --netif_add eth0,00:12:34:56:78:9C,veth101.0,00:12:34:56:78:9A --save
Configure veth devices: veth101.0
Unable to create veth: File exists
Saved parameters for VE 102


the problem is that i already created veth when i copy pasted the command for VEID 101

can anybody help

thanks

From a Vmware perspective, it sounds like he wants to create a private host-only network (specifically for VE intercommunication) that is not routable outside the host, for NFS and the like.

i.e. 172.16.xx.xx subnet -- see:

http://winhlp.com/IpAddressesPrivate.htm

// @OP: Pls correct me if I'm wrong

--You may need to remove the interface and re-add it.

--Here's what I did for host-only net; Centos 5--64 host and Debian 4 VE:

' vzctl set 101 --netif_add eth0,00:12:34:56:78:9D,veth101.0,00:12:34:56:78:01 --save '

-- ' dhclient eth0 ' did not work in guest; ** NOTE: it may be worthwhile for openvz to implement a VE DHCP server for guests

' ifconfig veth101.0 172.16.0.3 netmask 255.255.0.0 up '

(( guest:
' ifconfig eth0 172.16.1.3 netmask 255.255.0.0 up '
' ping 172.16.0.3 '
))

' ping 172.16.1.3 '
' nmap 172.16.1.3 ' # Revealed ssh

--I ssh'd to another local box on my net and configged it for 172.16 access, and it was *not* able to see the VE--host-only net -- which is what we want.

--Back on the openvz box:

--Note that if you are modifying parms for VE 102, you should use "veth102.0" in vzctl line, and a different MAC address.
