Bridging

Bridging multiple interfaces is a more advanced configuration, but is very useful in multiple
scenarios. One scenario is setting up a bridge with multiple network interfaces, then using a firewall
to filter traffic between two network segments. Another scenario is using bridge on a system with
one interface to allow virtual machines direct access to the outside network. The following example
covers the latter scenario.
Before configuring a bridge you will need to install the bridge-utils package. To install the package, in
a terminal enter:
sudo apt-get install bridge-utils
Next, configure the bridge by editing /etc/network/interfaces:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto br0
iface br0 inet static
address 192.168.0.10
network 192.168.0.0
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.0.255
gateway 192.168.0.1
bridge_ports eth0
bridge_fd 9
bridge_hello 2
bridge_maxage 12
bridge_stp off
Enter the appropriate values for your physical interface and network.
Now restart networking to enable the bridge interface:
sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
The new bridge interface should now be up and running. The brctl provides useful information about
the state of the bridge, controls which interfaces are part of the bridge, etc. See man brctl for more
information.

CKA Simulator Kubernetes 1.22

  https://killer.sh Pre Setup Once you've gained access to your terminal it might be wise to spend ~1 minute to setup your environment. You could set these: alias k = kubectl                         # will already be pre-configured export do = "--dry-run=client -o yaml"     # k get pod x $do export now = "--force --grace-period 0"   # k delete pod x $now Vim To make vim use 2 spaces for a tab edit ~/.vimrc to contain: set tabstop=2 set expandtab set shiftwidth=2 More setup suggestions are in the tips section .     Question 1 | Contexts Task weight: 1%   You have access to multiple clusters from your main terminal through kubectl contexts. Write all those context names into /opt/course/1/contexts . Next write a command to display the current context into /opt/course/1/context_default_kubectl.sh , the command should use kubectl . Finally write a second command doing the same thing into ...
