Bridged Flat1 Network

@PaulH wrote:

I'm a touch new to VMware Workstation and I’m trying to configure Flat1 as a bridged network so I can configure the ASAv with multiple external addresses on my local network so I can trial various nats etc.
Is this as simple as VMware won't let me NAT and Bridge to the same network on the same interface.
Do I need an additional interface to do this?

Am I missing something?

I’ve reconfigured the virl.ini for flat1

--Second flat connection (AKA flat1)

--Physical Port and virtual bridge for L2 bridge
l2_port2_enabled: True--Default is enabled
l2_port2: eth2

--l2 network (AKA flat1)
--l2_network format is address/cidr format x.x.x.x/x
l2_network2: 192.168.0.0/24
l2_mask2: 255.255.255.0
l2_network_gateway2: 192.168.0.1

--l2 bridge first and last address for dhcp allocation
--dont want dhcp from virl I want this assigning from my router so hashed
-l2_start_address2: 192.168.0.50
-l2_end_address2: 192.168.0.253

--address on the second L2 bridge port for debugging?
--Default is
l2_address2: 192.168.0.254/24

Ran vinstall rehost and rebooted

I’m told that renumber is no longer required
virl@virl:~$ vinstall renumber
This command no longer required.

Here’s my netlist
virl@virl:~$ neutron net-list
