Host Network options to give restricted access to guest

Post by markd89 »

Hi,

Linux Host
Windows Guest

I'd like to setup the networking so that the Guest gets no internet access except port 80 to certain whitelisted IPs.

I think this can be done by some clever combination of using the right Virtualbox network settings + IPTABLES.

Any suggestions much appreciated!

Thanks,
Mark

P.S. I know I can get achieve something similar by using Windows firewall in the Guest but I don't trust the firewall in the Guest so I'd like to do it on the Host side.
