HI all,
How can i allow guest online while host system keep offline?
I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 as host & VM
I tried host interface networking by
adding br0, eth0 and tap0
After i start the VM and it can go online, then i stop eth0 by
sudo ifconfig eth0 down, but the VM will also go offline.
I also tried not to add eth0 to br0, and it fail.
When I directly connect to WAN, it only assign 1 IP address at the same time and br0 always get that address. It make VM cannot get this.
What i actually want is the VM get that IP address from WAN.
BTW, Is there anyway to do host interface networking without using bridge-utils?
Please kindly let me know ~
Thanks ~
Regards,
Keith
