Subject: Re: Multiple Network labels - custom
it should work , as i am am using this for providing some "special"
networks myself in my environment.
maybe for a better understanding you can take a look at the following
https://www.shapeblue.com/understanding-cloudstacks-physical-networking-architecture/
and there the section "advanced network traffic". there you'll find a diagramm
of a scenario, where they provide an mpls network for guest traffic.
what i had done to achieve this is (it works but i don't know if this is all
best practice):
WARNING: When introducing another physical network for e.g guest traffic, the
"default" network offerings won't work anymore. CS has no default-allocation to
an specified network - At least this is my experience.
You will need to implement tags and create "custome" default network offerings
for further usage!
- create a new physical network in the zone
- add traffic type "guest"
- set the networklabel for matching purpose with the nics on the host
- define tags for ALL physical networks (at least i needed to. if i am correct
if you start tagging, you will have to implement it for all physical networks)
- create 2 network offerings each using one of the tags of the physical
networks - traffic type guest
Then you can create networks, using the new network offerings, which will use
the "tagged" physical network --> use the the matching nics on your hosts
