Bastille networks can be bridged, NAT’d, or VNET’d.

Run jails like mini-VMs, or keep them lean on localhost.

Flexibility is baked in.

Which setup do you prefer?

Hey #FreeBSD friends, I’m testing #BastilleBSD and I’ve created my first VNET Jails.
It’s all great and good but what is the use case that make you choose a #VNET #jail instead of a "regular" jail? (I’m using regular jails for many years)

thank you! :)

If you have a bridge on #FreeBSD with many members, but no addresses (#vnet jails, #bhyve VMs?) there may be a performance improvement for you in this patch that landed in stable/14 https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/?h=stable/14&id=ff1980d569c8167d38cda5f2713664866d9802bc

After a while of fiddling, I got dual-stack for FreeBSD (IPv4 and IPv6) VNet Jails working properly and reliably 🙂

The important lessons, I've learned:

/etc/sysctl.conf:
+net.link.bridge.inherit_mac=1

/boot/loader.conf:
+if_epair_load="YES"

/etc/rc.conf:
+create_args_bridge0="inet6 auto_linklocal -ifdisabled addm vtnet0"
+ifconfig_vtnet0="up -tso -vlanhwtso"
+rtsold_enable="YES"
+rtsold_flags="-i -m bridge0"

Then, configuring ifconfig_bridge0_ipv6 as well as ipv6_defaultrouter for the host to have IPv6 connectivity as well as the network-configuration in the jail via $jail/etc/rc.conf (The jail of course needs it's own IP on the same subnet as the host)

Screenshots of the fully working configuration with a connectivity test are attached :-)

I believe this topic is not really well discussed online – and often with multiple misunderstandings. There seems to be this general belief that Podman on Linux is as safe as Jails on FreeBSD…
