Posted by OpenInternet-Vince, 10-30-2013, 09:09 PM I don't want to waste an external IP on the host server. So I would to put an internal IP on the NIC for management purpose. The server NIC connects to the switch with two network (external / internal IP) What I'm wondering is if any of the linux visualization platform could allow me to set the VPS to have direct access to the NIC (bridged). I know with vmware (Windows), the VPS could set to bridged so it can have an external IP address without having the traffic routed through the host server.
