Hi,
i know it maybe a newbie question, but: how can i "monitor" which connections i have from my LAN clients towards VMs hosted on pve (say, on vmbr0)?

Maybe netstat ? I tried netstat -ta but i see only my putty and iscsi nas connections to the host, nothing to ward guests...

Ideally, I would like to know all IPs of hosts connected to every VM hosted there, without asking to every VM individually... do you know any simple way to do this?

Thx, Marco
 
we use a bridged network by default, so you cant see tcp connections on the host (only layer 2 packets).
