Hello. Hopefully this is good place to ask. If not, please suggest something else.
For quite some time I'm trying to figure out how to create a bridge using main network interface (the only one which is routable to the host). I have tried these Ansible tasks: - name: "Get {{ public_nic }} connection name" shell: nmcli --terse device | grep "^{{ public_nic }}:" | cut -d ':' -f 4 register: public_connection_cmd - name: "Extract {{ public_nic }} connection name" set_fact: public_connection: "{{ public_connection_cmd.stdout_lines|first|trim }}" - name: "Create brpublic bridge connection" nmcli: conn_name: brpublic ifname: brpublic type: bridge stp: no state: present - name: "Put {{ public_nic }} device into brpublic" nmcli: conn_name: brpublic-slave ifname: "{{ public_nic }}" type: bridge-slave master: brpublic state: present - name: "Remove old {{ public_nic }} connection" nmcli: conn_name: "{{ public_connection }}" state: absent when: "public_connection != '' and public_connection != 'brpublic-slave'" but this breaks the network on the last task. I have also tried these two ways via "shell": set -xe old_connection=$( nmcli --terse device | grep "^{{ public_nic }}:" | cut -d ':' -f 4 ) nmcli con add type bridge con-name brpublic ifname brpublic ###nmcli con add type bridge-slave con-name brpublic-slave ifname "{{ public_nic }}" master brpublic nmcli connection modify "$old_connection" master brpublic ###if [ -n "$old_connection" -a "$old_connection" != 'brpublic-slave' ]; then ### nmcli c delete "$old_connection" ###fi nmcli con up brpublic but this fails as well (script works, but at the end according to `ip a` IP is still on the main interface, not on "brpublic"). Mine end goal is to have VM on that bridge that can be accessible from outside network. What is the right way to do that remotely?
