vimage and jail networking

[Nathan Aherne]

Hi Everyone!

I am having trouble getting my head around vimage and jail networking. I would like for my jails to have private IPs (10.0.0.0/24) and only use a single public IP.

I am having a hard time finding tutorials or information on how to structure my network. My first thoughts were to clone the loopback interface (have the jails on it) but then I get lost with how to configure the bridging. I found this tutorial on the subject - http://wiki.polymorf.fr/index.php/Howto:FreeBSD_jail_vnet <http://wiki.polymorf.fr/index.php/Howto:FreeBSD_jail_vnet> but I am unsure how the bridging works as the bridge interface does not seem to be bridged to anything.

I would really appreciate it if someone could point me in the correct direction.

Regards,

Nathan
