Both KVM and Xen allow you to directly map a PCI slot into a client's namespace. Right now I'm running pfSense as a VM under KVM and have both a physical Ethernet port and a HiFN card mapped directly to it. With VMWare, VirtualBox, and most other virtualization managers (as Sean noted) it'll present as a generic Ethernet interface with no WiFi extensions, you'll have to use the host to manage the actual wireless association. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
