I have a wired Ethernet port and a wireless port. I have a device connected directly to my PC (running Windows 7) by means of the Ethernet port and the device connects to the Internet, which is available over the wireless network. I can fairly simply bridge the wired port to the wireless port by means of Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network Connections
, selecting the two interfaces and bridging them. This allows the device access to the Internet.
However, I'd like to place a VirtualBox VM in the middle of this bridge, allowing it to sniff (and modify by means of libnetfilter_queue
in Linux) network traffic on the bridge. What is the simplest method of achieving this?
Thanks for the pointers, I've posted the final solution (that appears to work for me) as an answer below. – Sedate Alien – 2010-12-04T01:23:24.240
