Networking

Private networks:

  • 10.0.0.0/8 (255.0.0.0)
  • 192.168.0.0/16 (255.255.0.0)
  • 172.16.0.0/12 (255.240.0.0)

  • Bridge (Like a Physical Network Switch)
    • One side of bridge gets IP addresses 10.0.0.2+. The bridge gateway would be 10.0.0.1
    • The other side is, i.e. the host IP 192.168.1.2+
    • NAT Port mapping required
    • Anything connected to the bridge can communicate with each other
  • MACVLAN
    • Connect directly to network, get IP address on network
    • MAC address is virtualised on the NIC - requires promiscuous mode, usually not allowed on cloud
    • High Performance (no NAT/bridge)
  • IPVLAN *
