== Specific aspects of venet network device == {{Note|If you require a feature which venet is lacking (from the list below), please consider using [[veth]].}} === No [http[w://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Address_Resolution_Protocol ARP|ARP]] protocol support ===
Venet network device is explicitly NOARP, so there is no MAC address.
Consequently, it's not possible to make broadcasts inside a [[CT|container]], so software like Samba server or DHCP server, will not function (under a container with a venet network device).<br />Please consider use of [[veth]] network device if you need this feature
=== No bridge support ===
Venet network device cannot be bridged together and/or with other devices.<br />Please consider use of [[veth]] network device if you need this feature
=== No possiblity to assign an IP from the CT ===
With venet device, only OpenVZ [[Hardware_Node|hardware node]] administrator can assign an IP address to a [[CT|container]].<br />Please consider use of [[veth]] network device if you need this feature
