@tjkreidl Not if I want to see what the stats were in the past!

@olivierlambert Thanks, that is what I'm using Sysstat for, to generate graphs. Will probably start using Zabbix sometime soon. Is there an ETA for the new agent?

Related: XOA memory consumption.

I am wondering why XO only records/shows the cached RAM usage of VMs, and not their actual active RAM usage. I am currently having to use Sysstat in my VMs just to record and view these stats. Does the XO agent not record/obtain these stats at all?

@fohdeesha Very interesting, thanks for the info! I did a double-take at the notion that wireless APs rely on the MAC address for authenticity... that's what the session key is for! But then I realised that the AP needs to be able to map IP/MAC address to session key for incoming packets, so it makes sense; we'd need one session per MAC address.

Welp, I guess it's cable-running time...

I do wonder, though: could the hypervisor act as the gateway for a subnet containing the guests, so that only the hypervisor is using the wireless connection? I don't know how challenging that would be to implement in XCP-ng, but I expect there'd be security implications, and one would still need a router that allows you to manually configure routes. Although I don't think I've ever come across a residential router/gateway that doesn't allow that, I haven't messed around with them, and I expect the ISP would just remotely reset custom routes after a restart, which would be a nuisance.

@olivierlambert Just want to have all the VMs use the same connection as the hypervisor, same as I would with Ethernet. Any particular reason that bridging Wi-Fi isn't supported? I would've thought that the Wi-Fi interface showing up in dom0 under ip link is enough, as then after doing xe pif-scan it would show up in XOA under New > Network > Interface dropdown, no?

Didn't think of USB passthrough, but that would restrict only one VM to using the interface, correct?

Apparently the rtl8187 kernel module which serves as a driver for the RTL8187/RTL8187B chipset is included in the EL7 kernel, but this is not the case in the XCP-ng 8.2 kernel (4.19.0+1), nor does a package seem to exist for this module. I would be grateful if this could be added, as I am trying to use a Netgear WG111v3 USB Wi-Fi dongle (vendor/device ID 0846:4260, RTL8187B chipset) for homelab purposes.
