<div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; ">So for example, on vmbr0, on VM #107, net0, you might see a device listed in the bridge as: tap107i0</div>

</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; ">A command of brctl delif vmbr0 tap107i0 would remove the tap interface. This would leave the NIC listed in your VM but not connected to the bridge and therefore not actually connected to your network. Its not
EXACTLY the same as VirtualBox there, but if you're wanting the NICs active and listed in your VM but not actually on the network this should accomplish what you're looking for.</div>

<div>Hi,<br>
</div>
<div>Just for the clarification, CARP is part of the *BSD.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For the problem reported, for now you can simply use if-up/if-down or enable/disable the interface, since youŽll still have access to the machine via the web.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Best Regards,</div>

Thanks, Vassilis - however, I am not looking to have the VM automatically take over for the hardware firewall at this point. Like I said, in Virtualbox on the network settings page of the VM settings, there is a checkbox to "unplug" the virtual network cable
to a virtual interface. Is there a way to do that with Proxmox?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

Hello Mark,<br>
<br>
if I understand your question correctly, I think the CARP feature in<br>
</div>
<div class="im">fsense is what you are looking for.<br>
