</div>Most users have a DHCP servers somewhere. So the VMs directly get there IPs from that DHCP server.<br>

I would like to use the Proxmox hardware node to do all the accounting of ip traffic of each VM guest which will then feed to a centralized server. My theory is that this eliminates performance issues upstream of taking care of this. I have most of this working. Since you cannot reach inside of a guest KVM, I need to find another way using the hardware node bridge which is using iptables if possible. I am sure it can be done. I just haven't figured it out yet.</div>
