I am reinstalling Qubes, but I am not sure how to which devices to attach to sys-usb and which to sys-net. Earlier the network devices were directly attached to sys-usb and sys-usb was providing the network. This is the setting my new install started with. I am trying to avoid getting network directly from sys-usb. There seems to be some trivial thing that I am missing.
For context, my laptop (Dell XPS 13 9370) has two thunderbolt USB-C ports and one normal USB-C port. It is the third port which is practically the only port I can use as things are setup, since it seems to be unadvisable to attach thunderbolt devices to Qubes. So I mostly use a USB-C hub, which has the ethernet port as well other ports. The laptop is not in the HCL list, but it seems to work fine with some issues. The documentation for Qubes is pretty good, but one problem is that it is better for those who either have no technical knowledge or have deep technical knowledge of how Linux and OS work, along with networking. I fall somewhere in the middle, so both kinds of advised are not very useful. I think, given that the online threats come from network, there should be a more detailed, technically middle-grounded documentation for setting up network on Qubes, including where should VPN go (various options and their pros and cons). Can someone help with this problem, right now just for getting my Qubes installation started, keeping ethernet and other USB devices separate, and with VPN installed somewhere. Detailed documentation can come later. Regards, Anil -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
