KVM: MAC guidelines
Each physical compute node in ARC has an IP with the structure:
10.1.255.X
One way to check the IP of node n is to type:
host compute-0-n
Each VM hosted on a compute node has an IP and MAC with the structure:
IP: 10.1.X.Y
MAC: 54:52:00:00:xx:aa
-
xx is the hex value of X from the physical host IP.
-
Y is assigned in the range
2-254 independent of the value of aa, i.e., as hexadecimal value anywhere in range 02-fe.
After assigning a MAC to your VM, you can determine the IP of the VM by:
-
Connecting using VNC as described in the creation guide.
-
Looking at the output of the arp command on the physical host:
arp -a
