Bridged networking on VirtualBox just works, it used to be a horrid little pavane of making sure the vbox user had all the right permissions, I just noticed the other day that I could switch all my VMs to Bridged, which means they are all on the same networkas my physical machine.

Does vbox automagically create new tun/tap interfaces on your bridged nic for you now or do you still have to create them manually? Qemu/KVM use the tun/tap bridges as well, so adding a new interface on my server is just a matter of adding defining a new one in the network config and restarting the network.

Automagically, at least on my Ubuntu rig. I just thought I'd give bridged networking a try, and it worked, no mess, no fuss.
