Using Scream over LAN

Introduction

In the event your Windows VM does not require network isolation by traversing NAT (for security purposes) using Scream over the LAN 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 VM needs to have a VirtIO Network Adapter installed in the VM. This includes:
  • Creating a Bridged Network Adapter on the Host
  • Passing that Bridged Adapter to the VM
  • Installing the VirtIO drivers on the Guest.
