Proxmox and IPBX

[jsenzier]

I have a virtual machine installed on my Proxmox server with OpenVZ.

I try to activate a software with a licence.

The software request a website and record the mac address of my proxmox server (the mac address of my real NIC)

After the request, the software check if the mac address of my virtual machine is the same as in the request.

But my virtual machine has not the same mac address as my physical server.

How can I do ?

do you use veth interface ? (openvz bridge mode ?)

 

[jsenzier]

Yes, I use veth interface.

If I use venet, the software says : "Licence key need IP Address or Mac Address"

Hi,
don't understand where your software get the host mac-address - a mac adress is only visible in the same network and you software should only see the mac-adress from your CT.

If I look inside a CT:

# ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr f2:2b:49:01:a2:42
...

on the host

cat /etc/pve/openvz/300.conf
...
NETIF="ifname=eth0,bridge=vmbr23,mac=F2:2B:49:01:A2:42,host_ifname=veth300.0,host_mac=00:17:52:7E:9D:B3"
...
root@proxmox:~# ifconfig vmbr23
vmbr23    Link encap:Ethernet  Hardware Adresse 00:0f:52:01:35:fc
...

If in my setup the software use f2:2b:49:01:a2:42 all should be fine, or?
