I have KVM libvirt hypervisor with br0 interface, connected to local 192.168.10.0/24 network. When I install maas via multipass , they created an external bridge mpqemubr0 with 10.52.158.0/24 network, which not accessible from external network, because this subnet resides behind multipass NAT. I relaunched maas by:

launch --name maas -c4 -m8GB -d32GB --network "name=br0" --cloud-init  maas.yml

multipass successfully starts maas, shows additional interface, ping to 192.168.10.39 ok, but now no access via http://192.168.10.39:5240 or http://10.52.158.178:5240

What I need to start multipass+maas on the local network? Thank you

I was wondering witch method to use to deploy OpenStack. I read guides of OpenStack, but there is no focusing on Debian. What is the most stable method to deploy OpenStack on Debian?

My bridge device is set up on the 192.168.1.0/24 network, and my KVM devices are set up on a virtual network (NAT to br0) in the 192.168.100.0/24 network. I have a MAAS server in KVM at 192.168.100.10 which provides DNS services for all my KVM guests. I am trying to ssh to these guests using their hostname, but it is not working. # /etc/conf.d/net # Set up the initial layer 2 bridge interface bridge_br0="enp4s0" # bridge config_br0="dhcp" bridge_forward_delay_br0=0 bridge_hello_time_br0=1000 dns_domain="maas" dns_servers="192.168.1.1 192.168.100.10 8.8.8.8" dhcp="nodns" # /etc/resolv.conf # Generated by net-scripts for interface br0 domain maas nameserver 192.168.1.1 nameserver 192.168.100.10 nameserver 8.8.8.8 # Some Tests damaya@data ~ $ ssh ubuntu@juju.maas ssh: Could not resolve hostname juju.maas: Name or service not known damaya@data ~ $ host juju.maas Host juju.maas not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) damaya@data ~ $ host juju.maas 192.168.100.10 Using domain server: Name: 192.168.100.10 Address: 192.168.100.10#53 Aliases: juju.maas has address 192.168.100.178 My question: What network settings do I need in order to allow my host system to be able to use the DNS server provided by MAAS?
