I assume when you're creating VMs you connect them to the ovirtmgmt network? If so, when the VM generates a DHCP request it goes out to the same physical network that the ovirtmgmt device is on. Meaning, that if the VM and the management device both generate DHCP requests they should get responses in the same subnet. As for SSH'ing into those VMs, DHCP vs static addressing shouldn't make a difference unless you end up with different subnets. If you give a VM a static address in the same range as the DHCP responses I'd imagine you wouldn't be able to SSH into it either.

The IP address on the ovirtmgmt bridge is static/public. I have not done any additional network/VLAN configuration. If I create a VM and give it an address on the same subnet, I can ssh to it just fine. If I create a VM and let it use dhcp, it gets a 172.31.x.x address. Outgoing access works fine, but I can't figure out what to do to allow me to be able to ssh into those VMs. With straight KVM the VM private network was on a virtual interface on the host, making it easy. But I can't figure out how to do it with oVirt. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
