We are doing this now and have been very happy with it. In fact, we have a VM that is NAT
routing from a private to a public subnet, which is forwarding to another VM that is
routing/transparent proxy to the internet, all through bridged interfaces. All of our host
systems are blades on the private subnet.

People,
Now that I can create FC6 Guests running on FC6 quite happily I am
thinking of using a very stripped down, minimal Guest as the Internet
gateway, proxy etc for the host machine such that the Guest has the real
IP address and the host machine is using a typical private IP address eg
192.168.0.10 - is anyone else doing this successfully?
Thanks,
Phil.
