Description Martin Tessun 2019-11-25 08:03:36 UTC

Once SPICE allows forwarding of DVD devices, there is a security need to be able to disable this functionality for a/all VMs.

For that some engine UI options are needed for SPICE to enable/disable DVD forwarding to the guest and configure the guest accordingly.

Ideally this is also possible on a per cluster basis to change the default behaviour for this cluster.

(In reply to Martin Tessun from comment #0)

If I understood correctly, DVD forwarding is implemented on the basis of USB forwarding: a virtual USB device is created for the DVD and then forwarded to the guest. We already have an option in VM configuration that enables/disables USB forwarding and this will effectively enable/disable DVD forwarding too. Is this enough for this RFC?

Comment 2 Arik 2021-08-17 15:06:16 UTC

USB forwarding is already configurable (and disabled by default) for SPICE so as DVD forwarding is based on USB forwarding, DVD forwarding can be enabled/disabled that way
