CentOS-6.5 i86_64 qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.415.el6_5.4 MS-Windows v7proSP1 We have installed a MicroSoft Win7 system as a guest and have joined it to our MS AD domain. The system runs and has internet access. However, the IPv4 address it obtains and the gateway it is assigned are both sourced from the virtual machine host system and not from our AD DC DHCP server. To clarify, the virbr0 IP address is 192.168.122.1 and the Windows guest has that address as its gateway and an IP address in the 192.168.122.0/24 netblock. This is not as we desire as the internal addresses we regularly assign to MS workstations via DHCP are supposed to belong to a different netblock entirely. This permit filtering on incoming and outgoing traffic at the gateway. I realize that there is a DHCP service running on virbr0 for the purpose of provisioning guests with system control traffic but I do not know how to limit that to its intended purpose and allow another DHCP server to provide the IP address to the windows guests. I hope that problem description is not too confusing. Can anyone provide me with some guidance on the matter? Are kvm guests required to have either static ip addresses or dhcp addresses provided by the host system? Thanks in advance. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.
