I have been playing with VNETs and have successfully used VNET for multiple jails. In all these cases the jails were associated with a single interface and everything works fine.
The Trunas device has multiple NICS and there is now a requirement to run a Jails in a different network segment. Since this segment has a lower security posture I would like to dedicate a NIC to this segment. While trying to configure this with Vnet0 and the bridge associated with the NIC the Jail comes up but is unable to ping anywhere other than its own IP address. (So the network stack is working)
I was able to make this to work by assigning another VNET and associating the bridge (with the interface in it ) to the new VNET.
My question is does every NIC that needs to be used individually require the creation of a separate VNET? If so what is the max number of VNETs that can be created?
Or am i doing something wrong?
Thanks
