OK, lets simplify it a bit. This is now the layout that I am playing with and
trying to get KVM to work .
+-----------------------------------+
| Host |
| +----------+ eth0 |---- 192.168.1.0/24
| | VM eth1|------qtap1 |
| | | | |
| | eth0 | br-eth1---eth1 |---- 192.168.4.0/24
| +----------+ |
| |
+-----------------------------------+
Host-eth0 is only for the Host (no VM I/O)
Host-eth1 is shared between the Host and the VM (Host <--> VM, Host<--
>"external", VM <--> "external")
VM-eth0 is unused at the moment.
This is the commands I have been using to setup the Networking:
brctl addbr br-eth1
brctl setfd br-eth1 0
brctl sethello br-eth1 1
brctl stp br-eth1 off
brctl addif br-eth1 eth1
tunctl -b -t qtap1
brctl addif br-eth1 qtap1
ifconfig qtap1 up 0.0.0.0 promisc
ifconfig br-eth1 192.168.4.1/24 up
ifconfig eth1 0.0.0.0 up
And this is the way I start the VM:
kvm -net nic,vlan=1,model=rtl8139,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56 -net
tap,vlan=1,ifname=qtap1,script=no,downscript=no Robbie.img -m 1024 -k de-ch
On the Host I have the following:
# ifconfig eth1

0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
And in the VM I have:

But Still I get the following:
>From the Host to the VM:
$ ssh [email protected]
ssh: connect to host 192.168.4.4 port 22: Connection refused
And from the VM to the Host:
# ssh [email protected]
ssh: connect to host 192.168.4.1 port 22: Connection refused
Any more suggestions?
