Do you feel that using a virtualized router with other things on the box puts you at greater risk? I.e. you're putting an awful lot of eggs in that one basket.

Do you feel that using a virtualized router with other things on the box puts you at greater risk? I.e. you're putting an awful lot of eggs in that one basket. I've considered setting that up before but shied away from it.
- xxpor 5y agoAvailability risk? Sure, but that's 99.9% my own doing (constant experiments, etc) Security risk? Not in the slightest. I'm running an up to date proxmox which is just KVM+QEMU with some scripting and a website on top, basically. I know how to setup IOMMU groups and such. If it's good enough for the big cloud providers, it's good enough for me.
- zrail 5y agoYeah primarily I'm concerned with availability. I have a "production" hypervisor now with all of the household services running on it that I've promised my spouse I wouldn't mess around with which cuts off one avenue of experiments.
- xxpor 5y agoAh yeah, I definitely have the distinct advantage of living with me, myself, and I :)
