Network configuration
Network configuration is managed via netplan. To modify, do:
vi /etc/netplan/bender.yaml netplan generate netplan apply
Bender is globally accessible through a public, static IPv4 address. IPv6 configuration is being discussed with Sonic net admins.
The br0 bridge is created libvirt on startup with /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml
. This is a NAT interface and is not meant for VMs directly
Guests simply need to be configured to accept IPv6 routing advertisements. The DNS must be assigned manually.
