# About
This is an example windows router provisioned by ansible in a vagrant environment.
Vagrant VMs need to have a management network wich is NATted by the host,
but that makes it difficult to play with the windows router, so this essentially
adds a secondary network interface that is used for routing, and replaces the
adds a default route to use our router in `eth1`. So everything that would be
normally done at `eth0` must be done in `eth1`.
The network is setup as:
**NB** The dotted lines represent a network connection that is not directly used,
instead, the traffic in those nodes goes through `eth1` and is routed by the
`router` machine.
**NB** For a non-ansible equivalent of this environment see
[rgl/windows-router-vagrant](https://github.com/rgl/windows-router-vagrant).
**NB** For a debian linux equivalent of this environment see
[rgl/debian-router-vagrant](https://github.com/rgl/debian-router-vagrant).
## Usage
Install the [base windows 2022 box](https://github.com/rgl/windows-vagrant).
Install ansible in a python venv:
```bash
# NB this will use sudo to install system dependencies.
bash ansible-install.sh
```
Start this environment:
```bash
source ansible-env.sh
time vagrant up --provider=libvirt --no-destroy-on-error --no-tty
```
You can later trigger the ansible playbook execution with `vagrant`:
```bash
vagrant up --provision
```
You can also directly trigger the ansible playbook execution with
`ansible-playbook`:
```bash
ansible-inventory --list --yaml
ansible-playbook playbook.yml --check --diff #-vvv
ansible-playbook playbook.yml --diff #-vvv
```
## Network Packet Capture
Login into the VM, install npcap (its on the Desktop), and run Wireshark.
