Hi everyone,

Is there any way to restrict network access for a Windows VM using KVM other than a couple of applications (Windows explorer and Firefox)? I don’t want to get into configuring the Windows firewall and would like to do this using KVM/other linux utilities on the host machine if possible As I thought, it is unlikely that I will be able to do this from the KVM side of things. Would anyone have an idea of how I could script this for subsequent Windows VMs?

Thanks!
