I want to create a network like this: Internet -- physical router -- host (network 192.168.178.x) -- virtual machine dmz -- eth0 (connected to pyshical router) -- eth1 (connect to isolated network 10.0.0.x) -- virtual machine www - eth0 (connect to isolated network 10.0.0.x) [image: network design] <http://i.stack.imgur.com/QoCz9.png> I have a virtual host which is conntected to my physical router with eth0 and ip4 address 192.168.178.100. I create a virtual machine dmz which connects 'direct' to my router via my physical device eth0 on the virtual host: <network connections='1'> <name>direct</name> <uuid>379d4687-445e-4bc6-8354-b555c7f18b15</uuid> <forward dev='eth0' mode='bridge'> <interface dev='eth0' connections='1'/> </forward> </network> On my virtual machine i create a second nic eth1 which is connected on a virtual network virbr-local: <network> <name>local</name> <uuid>d31b2e0d-810b-4ba0-8ac4-02bc53746142</uuid> <bridge name='virbr-local' stp='on' delay='0'/> <mac address='52:54:00:92:06:5c'/> <domain name='local.box'/> <dns> <forwarder addr='192.168.178.1'/> </dns> <ip address='10.0.0.1' netmask='255.0.0.0'> <dhcp> <range start='10.0.0.100' end='10.0.0.255'/> <host mac='52:54:00:51:31:86' ip='10.0.0.30'/> </dhcp> </ip> <route address='10.0.0.0' prefix='8' gateway='10.0.0.30'/> </network> Now I want to create a second virtual machine which connects to the internet through the virtual machine dmz on the virbr-local subnet. Is there a way to accomplish this kind of setup? My routing table on the virtual host looks likes this: Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface default fritz.box 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 10.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 virbr-local 10.0.0.0 10.0.0.30 255.0.0.0 UG 1 0 0 virbr-local 192.168.178.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 But when I want to ping an address from the www virtual machine I get a unreachable network message. I setup a DNAT om the virtual machine dmz. But looking witch tcpdump on eht1 there's no traffic.I appreciate some help to setup the network. I clearly missing something.
