Hello all, Is it possible to connect two eth interfaces from different umls together w/o using a switch ? I've tried by having them two go through different host tap devices, as in:
tunctl -u user -t tap0 ip a a 192.168.2.100/24 dev tap0 ip l s dev tap0 up tunctl -u user -t tap1 ip a a 192.168.2.101/24 dev tap1 ip l s dev tap1 up And then: [uml1 command line]... eth0=tuntap,tap0 [uml2 command line]... eth0=tuntap,tap1 uml1 eth0 is 192.168.2.1/24 uml2 eth0 is 192.168.2.2/24 uml1 routing table is: 192.168.2.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.2.1 uml2 routing table is: 192.168.2.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.2.2 These two umls cannot ping each other. In fact, tap0 and tap1 tcpdumps on the host side show no ICMP traffic. I'm doing something squarely wrong, but what is it ? Thanks for any suggestions. Cheers. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
