Re: [ovirt-users] newbie questions on networking

Hi Again, I'm not sure if my first post yesterday went through, I can see it in the list archives but I didn't receive a copy and I've confirmed my list settings include me getting a copy of my own posts. In any case, nobody has replied and unless I'm the only guy that needs my VMs to talk to the rest of the world I assume someone else knows how to fix this. I've read and re-read the Quick Start Guide, Installation Guide and Administration Guide even though they appear to describe an earlier version. If I've overlooked the answer and this is an RTFM issue, feel free to tell me so but I'd be grateful if you'd also tell me exactly which part of the FM to read. Again, my VM is getting an IP address and nameserver settings from the DHCP service running on the server room subnet the oVirt host sits in. From the Vm, I can ping the static IP of the host the vm is on, but not anything else on the server room subnet including the other hosts or the subnet's gateway. The "route" command sits for about 10 seconds before completing but eventually shows two rows, one for default with the correct local gateway and one for the local subnet. All appears to be well on the VM, the problem appears to be the host is not passing traffic. The dialogue for the interface on the host shows some logos on the ovirtmgmt network that's assigned to it, including a green "VM" tile. Is this the "outside" role for commodity connections to a VM? I've also spent some time rooting around different parts of the admin interface and found some settings under the ovirtmgmt network's vNIC Profiles for the "Network Filter." Tried changing that to "allow IPv4" and then to "No Network Filter" with no change. I hope to hear from you soon. randy in Seattle
