Another option would be to create a new 'Isolated Network' offering, with the Specify VLAN, DHCP, & DNS options ticked, but nothing else. Use this to create a new network, and whilst there will be a VR it will not act as a Router as we did not enable 'Source NAT'.
When you create the Network, you will need to specify a VLAN ID & IP range etc. The Gateway IP should be the IP of a Physical Router or L3 Switch which will map the traffic directly to the Internet. The IP Range will be a real world Public Internet IP range mapped to the VLAN ID will be outside the normal Guest VLAN range. The VR will get allocated the first 'guest' IP from the range you allocated to the Network, the remaining IPs will be allocated to Guest VMs, but as these IPs are public IPs, you now have your Guest VMs directly connected to the Internet. Alternatively you can create a network offering with NO options enabled other the Specify VLAN. This will allow you to create a network, and again allocate a VLAN ID and IP Range, however there will be no Virtual Router created, so no DHCP or DNS etc. When you launch a VM, CloudStack will 'allocate' and IP but there will be no mechanism to (DHCP) to tell the VM what the IP is, so you will then need to use the Console Proxy to access the VM and manually configure the IP etc Regards Geoff Higginbottom D: +44 20 3603 0542 | S: +44 20 3603 0540 | M: +447968161581 geoff.higginbot...@shapeblue.com -----Original Message----- From: Jonathan Bastin [mailto:jonathan.bas...@peerpointinternet.co.uk] Sent: 03 July 2013 19:00 To: users@cloudstack.apache.org Subject: Re: Network offering Public IP I do have it with a live IP directly assigned to the instance without the router being spun up. I will create a quick guide but basically you have to create a shared network and allow users to use it. Only issue is all users are on the same network which will create certain security holes. If you are fine with these it does work.
