Introduction

In the event your Windows Guest does not require network isolation by traversing NAT (for security purposes) using Scream over a VirtIO Bridge will yield a overall better experience to using the IVSHMEM drivers. Setup is also simpler.

Prerequisites & Dependencies

Before setup can begin there are a few requirements.

Prerequisites

  • The Guest needs to have a VirtIO Network Adapter installed. This includes:
    • Creating a Bridged Network Adapter on the Host
    • Passing the Bridged Network Adapter to the Guest
    • Installing the VirtIO drivers on the Guest.

Dependencies

  • We also require a few packages:
    • git
    • libpulse-dev (May already be installed.)
    • make (Will already be installed if you've setup Looking GLass)

Setup

For the most basic configuration Scream over LAN does not have much setup to it.

  • Configuring Scream on the Windows Guest
