Deploying Scanner Appliance in Split Network Mode
In Split Network mode, the Scanner Appliance has two interfaces - LAN and WAN. On cockpit web console, if create VM does not have an option to select networks, edit the XML template of the Scanner appliance virtual machine using command line to add the second interface. (same steps can be followed for Scanner deployment using virt-install, virt-clone methods.)
Edit the XML
To edit the XML, run this command:
virsh edit < INSTANCE NAME >
Example:
virsh edit qVSA-X.X.XX-X
Add second interface configuration:
Ensure the source bridge network is present on the KVM Hypervisor host machine.
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='<MAC address>'/>
<source bridge='<name of the bridge network>'/>
<model type='<model type>'/>
<link state='up'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x01' slot='0x04' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
Example:
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx'/>
<source bridge='bridge1'/>
<model type='e1000'/>
<link state='up'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x01' slot='0x04' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
