so it is in first stage hypervizor independent.

however for sure, the NIC needs to be supported who is emulated.
E.g. E1000 under VMware is ok, and not their proprietary VMXnet.

So I would simply support the commonly used - in most cases the E1000 from Intel.
if someone uses an "special" hypervizor, which is not supporting to emulate an E1000, well... unsupported

Just my 2 cents,

Cheers

Dear All,

At the risk of assigning more work to myself than I anticipate: there's an
action item on me to come up with some thoughts and questions to the
community about the VM probes. For example: what virtualisation technology
would people prefer (as we cannot support all of them)? How would we manage
these (think of field-upgrades) and how to administer them (at the moment
it's easy, since we supply the whole device with keys and firmware).

Regards,
Robert
