Trying to setup something similar to the Demo Setup described on the Openstack Quantum Admin Guide posted at: http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-network/admin/content/app_demo.html . I am using devstack to do the installation.
For the Network Node it says three network interfaces are required: >The node must have at least three network interfaces. The first is used to communicate with the controller node, >this is via the management network. The IP address of this interface should be configured to 100.1.1.12/24. >The second interface will be used for the VM traffic, this is on the data network. The third interface will be used to >connect to the external gateway on the network. This interface will be bridged to the Open vSwitch bridge "br-ex" interface. 1- Anyway we can set things up with only one or two interfaces? This is a real requirement or just to make the demo setup easier to implement? 2- Right now I only have two interfaces on my server and if I connect either of them to br-ex my server (the node and all the VMs on it) becomes unreachable. Right now I want to have only one single server for my experiments so I really do not need the network for VM traffic. 3- Is the br-eht1 bridge required for VM to VM communication is there to deal with namespaces? Earlier all I had to do to connect VMs on the same network together was to connect say eth1 directly to br-int. Now, there is this additional br-eth1 that needs to be created. Thanks.

At an extremely high-level, the two main things that Quantum provides are: 1) A rich tenant-facing API for defining networks. This let's tenants create rich network topologies, including multiple private networks, multi-tier web applications, etc. and choose which IP subnets are used on these networks (this even works if two tenants decide to use the same subnet). 2) Quantum has pluggable backends that allow cloud operators to use more advanced network technologies on the back-end. For example, you can use Open vSwitch tunneling to avoid limitations around VLANs or take advantage of a plugin that is aware of advanced hardware capabilities. The Quantum Admin Guide is still in draft form and we're hoping to have a publicly consumable draft near the end of this week. That should provide the additional details about specific capabilities.
