I'm saying you should literally run a router firmware in a VM so I guess it would depend on which firmware you used.

if you want to go really crazy with options linux can also be used as a router in fact it's what a lot of the firmwares are based on

bitches don't know about my srv records _tcp 4 lyfe

 [internal-only network 1]__
   |        |       |       |  eth1
[client] [server] [client] [virtualized router]
                            |  eth0
                        [NAT, or real internet, or another internal only network, use your imagination] 

if you want to work on infrastructure you need to practice making and connecting infrastructures and since you don't have 30 extra machines and routers laying around you can do all of this shit in VMs

[timmy]

we did a lot of that on live gear in class, but i guess it wouldnt hurt practicing in virtual environments

[maks]

class is bullshit you need to set up something practical for the sheer hell of it then wipe it out and do it again
