Integration of external/physical devices in advanced networking

["S. Reddit" <s....@gmail.com>]

Hi List

I wonder what are your ideas of integrating externally managed VMs/physical
Devices into a CloudStack environment. All I need is to enable CloudStack
VPC vRouter to be able to configure static NATs (or Forwarding/Firewall)
rules for such devices.

One possibility could be to deploy a small "dummy-VM" with secondary
addresses where NAT Rules could be pointed to and then attach the external
devices with theses addresses to the same isolated network.. seems like a
clutch though..

other ideas?

many thanks!
