Hi all, I couldn't see the following answered clearly in the literature, so I'll ask it here. When a freeBSD host is running a [anything] guest, a tap interface needs to be created. Let's say I've done all this: # ifconfig tap0 create # sysctl net.link.tap.up_on_open=1 net.link.tap.up_on_open: 0 -> 1 # ifconfig bridge0 create # ifconfig bridge0 addm igb0 addm tap0 # ifconfig bridge0 up I want to add another tap, I don't want to restart the host. If I do # ifconfig bridge0 addm tap1 then configure another vm to use tap1, can I expect it to work? Or, If I want 2 vns with 2 taps, do I need to do this: # ifconfig bridge0 create # ifconfig bridge0 addm igb0 addm tap0 addm tap1 # ifconfig bridge0 up The reason I ask, is because I'm expecting a freebsd vm to work on tap1, and it's not. thanks, -- John
