Hello Jorge, Thanks for your reply and in my reading of your "SmartOS single IP with NAT" it makes me think of many possibilities like maybe being able to add enough stuff so that the user might be able to select network settings in a similar way that VBox allows users but being able to code them in the zone json files. I would also like to investigate your approach more.
Have you done anything additional in this area since writing the article?
