Hello
i have several libvirt hosts (CentOS6, kvm), each with an internal
libvirt "default" network with "forward mode='route'". I have
two
questions concerning static routes.
To give some context: On each of my libvirt hosts there is a VM acting
as a OpenVPN-gateway to the other libvirt hosts.
[A] How can i add a persistant static route on the libvirt host to one
of its guests?
Read: How can i add a persistant static route TO the libvirt host (the
static route going via one of its guests)
Someone had already asked this on this list in 2011 but apperently
did
not receive an answer [1]. Likewise, i found that a
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-virbr0 does not get applied when
libvirt starts its default network.
[B] How can i make libvirt's dnsmasq push static routes into the guests?
Apperently dnsmasq supports pushing of static routes using DHCP options
33 or 121 [2], e.g. "--dhcp-option=121,x.x.x.x/yy,z.z.z.z". But i did
not find how to add that to a libvirt network declaration.
I know that if i had [A] working, the host could redirect the IP traffic
on behalf of the guests, but i'd like to avoid the resulting extra hop
and the flood of ICMP redirects.
Please advise. Cheers /nils.
