Eve-NG Cluster => how to access satellite physical NICs?

Before posting something, READ the changelog, WATCH the videos, howto and provide following:
Your install is: Bare metal, ESXi, what CPU model, RAM, HD, what EVE version you have, output of the uname -a and any other info that might help us faster.

Eve-NG Cluster => how to access satellite physical NICs?

Post by Paco Alcantara » Wed Nov 17, 2021 11:39 am

Hi,

I am running a cluster using one master and three satellites. I am trying to create shared services at master to be shared with all labs in the environment by forwarding the traffic to a specific NIC in master and phisically connect this NIC with all the satellites.

For the rest of labs to access these "shared services", all they have to do is to connect the lab deployed to the physical NIC in the satellite that it connected to the mentioned NIC in the master.

Problem is that I cannot see how to connect a especific lab to satellite NICs in graphical user interface, or I have not seen how to connect them yet.

Any help?? Is this feature not implemented yet??

Thanks in advance

Satellite is using Master NIC and the Master cloud interfaces.
But rest info is provided in the EVE Pro cookbook chapter 15

It is clear I have access to the NIC of Master machine, as GUI offers those NICs to be selected.

Problem is what happens with extra NICs available in satellites: I have 8 NICs in my satellite machine. One is used to connect to the master, the outstanding 7 NICs are lost: I have no way to access them. Is that correct?

If true, will this feature be implemented in future?

Thanks in advance.
