[pve-devel] Vmbr bridge permissions and SDN improvements?

[Neil Hawker]

Hi,

We're currently using version 7.1-10 and have the use case where we need to hide the vmbr bridges from normal users to prevent them circumventing network security that is applied through SDN vNets.

For context, our setup is a Proxmox cluster that is used as a learning environment for students where they can create and manage their own VMs to practice their Cybersecurity skills in an isolated environment. Being able to hide the vmbr bridges from users would achieve this.

I have found on the community forum (https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/sdn-group-pool-permissions.93872) that Spirit had contributed changes that have yet to be accepted/merged in that would achieve this as well as some SDN GUI improvements.

I appreciate developers are very busy, but is it possible for Sprit's changes to be included in an upcoming version and if so, any rough idea when they might get released?

Thanks
Neil
