Virtual network bridge
- Create an additional virtualized bridge on CentOS if you need to. Example:
# virsh net-dumpxml cisco <network> <name>cisco</name> <uuid>2fb420fb-943c-e5be-0769-0b2700c9d7e0</uuid> <bridge name='virbr1' stp='on' delay='0' /> <mac address='52:54:00:2B:F6:26'/> <ip address='192.168.200.1' netmask='255.255.255.0'> </ip> </network>
Create virtual machine
- 4 GB memory.
- 3 virtio network interfaces. For example 2 in the virtual isolated Cisco network and 1 to your own network.
- Select the downloaded qcow2 image as storage.
- Add serial port as first serial device. Select TCP net console (tcp), for example 127.0.0.1:4555 and select 'Use Telnet'.
