Hi Salvatore,

Yes, you will be able to have multiple physical networks with each having a 
guest traffic type. Below mentioned is high-level steps on how to achieve this.

- Let's assume I have a xenserver with eth0 and eth1
        Eth0 : xenbr0 : network-label = cloud-eth0
        Eth1 : xenbr1 : network-label = cloud-eth1
- Phy1
        * Traffic type = Guest
        - Depends on the hypervisor, you need to configure traffic label
        - For example: in case of Xen, you need to set Xen traffic label to 
"cloud-eth0"

- Phy2
        * Traffic Type = Guest
        - Depends on the hypervisor, you need to configure traffic label
        - For example: in case of Xen, you need to set Xen traffic label to 
"cloud-eth1" (NOTE: This not necessarily be a different network label. It can 
be same as above as well) 

Since you have multiple Guest networks, in order to make use of it we need 
define tags to each of these physical networks. 

For Ex : 
        Phy1    :       Tag1
        Phy2    :       Tag2

When you create network offering you have to define above tag to it. So that it 
could let guest VMs which uses that network offering pick right network label 
(cloud-eth0/cloud-eth1). Please let me know if you need any other info.

Thanks,
SWAMY

Hi,

If I define two physical networks for a zone, say Phy1 and Phy2, can I have 
distinct guest traffic labels on each network?
If yes (which I doubt), how can I specify that a logical network should be 
built using a particular guest traffic label.

Salvatore
