Public VLAN: Routed with Internal Bridge

Let us assume the host is on a public VLAN 46.43.34.0/26 and has been given the IP of 46.43.34.10. The range 1.0.0.0/24 has been routed to 46.43.34.10.

For this setup:

IP forwarding needs enabling for virtual machine traffic to leave the machine. The guests can talk to each other without it enabled.
eth0 will only emit traffic from its own MAC address as all packets are routed.
Assign the gateway ip 1.0.0.1/24 to br0. Linux will see all of the /24 as connected.

InternalBridge

The routing table on the host machine should look like:

	46.43.34.0/26 dev eth0
	1.0.0.0/24 dev br0
	default via 46.43.34.1

“Thank you so much for all your help with the server. We handled 6 times our normal traffic with absolutely no slowdown. I really appreciate all the help and advice you guys gave at such short notice and how quickly you got the new server going. Could have been a bit of a disaster without it! I'll most definitely be recommending you to anyone who's looking for hosting in the future.”
