              <p>Hi<br>
                For long time I've been looking for proper support in
                ovirt for Open vSwitch so I'm happy that it is moving in
                the right direction. However, there seems to still be a
                dependency on a ovirtmgmt bridge and I'm unable to move
                that to the OVN provider.</p>
              <p>The hosting center where I rent hw instances has a bit
                special network setup, so I have one physical network
                port with a /32 netmask and point-to-point config to
                router. The physical port I connect to a ovs bridge
                which has the public ip. Since ovirt always messes up
                the network config when I've tried to let it have access
                to the network config for the physical port, I've set
                eht0 and ovsbridge0 as hidden in vdsm.conf.<br>
              </p>
              <p>I then create a bridge for use with ovirt, with a
                private address. With the OVN provider I am now able to
                import these into the engine and it looks good. When
                creating a VM I can select that it will have a vNic on
                my OVS bridge.</p>
              <p>However, I can't start the VM as an exception is thrown
                in the log:</p>

              <p>Looking at that section of code where the exception is
                thrown, I see that it iterates over host networks to
                find required networks, which I assume is ovirtmgmt. In
                the host network setup dialog I don't see any networks
                at all but it lists ovirtmgmt as required. It also list
                the OVN networks but these can't be statically assigned
                as they are added dynamically when needed, which is
                fine.</p>
              <p>I believe that I either need to remove ovirtmgmt
                network or configure that it is provided by the OVN
                provider, but neither is possible. Preferably it
                shouldn't be hardcoded which network is management and
                mandatory but be possible to configure.</p>

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

OVN (Open Virtual Networking) is a new network virtualization project that
brings virtual networking to Open vSwitch.
OVN is now availble to use as a tech preview in oVirt. It is made available
using the oVirt external network providers API, which allows using external
network management software inside environments managed by oVirt.
The integration with OVN will allow users to take advantage of native OVS
support for software defined networks.

The advantages of using OVN:
- ability to use large number of networks with no need for multiple host NICs
  or VLAN use
- ability to set up new network without any changes to the physical infrastructure
- easier to maintain due to centralized management
- good traffic isolation due to Openflow rules
- improved performance over neutron OVS plugin (<a moz-do-not-send="true" class="m_5516615152786296900moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://blog.russellbryant.net/2016/12/19/comparing-openstack-neutron-ml2ovs-and-ovn-control-plane/" target="_blank">https://blog.russellbryant.<wbr>net/2016/12/19/comparing-<wbr>openstack-neutron-ml2ovs-and-<wbr>ovn-control-plane/</a>)
