RE: Logical Partitions and TCP/IP over virtual Ethernet

The bridge is easy to set up and use. Basically bridging the external interface and it's traffic over to the internal.

No mention of VRM and HMC.. But at v7.1 and HMC'd I have used the new bridge line desc. From "service" lpar to network then the the virtual LAN.

This also has same concepts.

IMO the bridging makes it easier to get guest lpar on the same network as other hosts. No more nat or proxy.

I've set up a service partition and a guest partition. On the service
partition I created a virtual Ethernet adapter and one on the client
partition using the same VLAN id. I have 2 line descriptions, one for
the physical and one for the virtual created on the service partition.
I have a line description created for the virtual adapter on the
client partition. I then created the routing for the physical adapter
with a public address and routing for each of the virtual adapters. I
used NAT to map the private address of partition 2 (client) to the
public address of partition 1 (service). I thought I had this set up
correctly, but I am unable to see the public interface from the
network. Did I do something incorrectly? I am able to see another
interface on partition 1 that is not bridged. Any help would be appreciated.
