Hello, Vijay Viswanathan a écrit : > I have a setup where > lxc ( container/light weight sandbox ) brings up veth and setsup IP as > 192.168.10.2. and runs telnet server ( on port 2300 ) > > I created a bridge with IP 192.168.10.2 attaching the veth. Why ? Note : the address on br0 is different in the output of ifconfig. Is 192.168.10.2 the address of the container or the host ? > After the route setup, the host ( with eth1: 10.4.38.222 ) Note : the address on eth1 is different in the output of ifconfig. > is able to ping the veth ( 192.168.10.2 ) and vice versa. Vice versa ? What do you mean exactly ? What commands do you run ? > Now how do I connect to the telnet server on 192.168.10.2: 2300 from > 10.4.3x.xxx network ? Assuming the routing is properly set up on the network (i.e. hosts on the network or the default router have a route to 192.168.10.0/24 with gateway 10.4.38.182) and forwarding is enable on the host (net.ipv4.ip_forward=1), just run : $ telnet <container_address> 2300 > I guess I need some kind of NAT rules Only as a last resort if you cannot setup proper routing on the network. > also tried adding : > > # brctl addif br0 eth1 If you add eth1 to the bridge, then you must : - move the IP address from eth1 to br0, - use an IP address in the external network subnet for the container. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
