Mohammad Aladwan commented on CLOUDSTACK-9406: ---------------------------------------------- Dear all, I don't know if this the right place, please if my question in another section, redirect me. i have question, whats the way protect ISO image in cloudstack from any attack. thanks On Mon, Jun 6, 2016 at 3:35 PM, Wido den Hollander (JIRA) <j...@apache.org> > Enable IPv6 Link-Local in cloud0 interface in System VMs > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-9406 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-9406 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: Improvement > Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the > default.) > Components: KVM, SystemVM > Reporter: Wido den Hollander > Labels: ipv6, link-local, systemvm > > Currently a 169.254.0.0/16 address is used for communication between the > (KVM) hypervisor and a System VM. > The address is provided through a socket to the SSVM on startup. > This adds additional complexity since such an address needs to be recorded in > the database. > IPv6 provides the Link-Local address starting with fe80:: where it is > calculated based on the MAC-address. > This address could be used to communicate with the SSVM without any prior > communication with it. The Hypervisor knows the MAC address of the SSVM and > thus it knows which address the SSVM will obtain. > On this address a provisioning daemon could run instead of the current 'patch > via socket' scripts. > Over this address the SSVM could even expose a complete REST-full API which > can be used to talk to the SSVM. > Using the IPv6 link-local address would be the first step to IPv6 in the SSVM. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
