If you already have installed KVM on Centos6.x and have spun up VMs on Linux bridge using libvirt, moving to Open vSwitch is very straight-forward. 1) Read INSTALL or INSTALL.RHEL in the Open vSwitch repo to install Open vSwitch in Centos. 2) You need >= libvirt0.9.11 for openvswitch support. (I compile from sources from http://libvirt.org/sources/libvirt-1.0.0.tar.gz) 3) Read INSTALL.Libvirt file. - Make sure you attach a physical interface to Open vSwitch bridge as a port (just like you would do for a linux bridge) if you want external network connectivity. > > My main issue is what should my initial NIC setttings be before I install > anything?
