Add raspberry interface to bridge:

brctl addif virbr0 vnet0
ip link set vnet0 up

Configure address on RPi interface:

sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces

iface eth0 inet static
address 172.16.32.7
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 172.16.32.254

sudo vi /etc/resolv.conf

nameserver 8.8.8.8

Update packages and install puppet:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install puppet

Configure server:

sudo vi /etc/puppet/puppet.conf

...
[agent]
server = puppet.derecom.it

First run:

sudo puppet agent --test --verbose

On the master:

puppet ca sign raspberrypi
