I will need to use a new cluster with OVS type of switch.
Below the paragraph from [1]:
1.2. Physical Networks
It is possible to connect the OVN logical networks to a physical network,
akin to OpenStack’s physnet
<
https://ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/network/provider-ph...;.
The traffic on the physical external network can optionally be VLAN tagged.
Connecting to external networks is *limited* to oVirt clusters configured
to use *Open vSwitch* switch type, which is currently in tech-preview.

Hello Alex,
yes you will need an OvS switch type to have this configured. Few things to
keep in mind:
1) If you are using version 4.3 it should work just.
2) On versions 4.4 however the physnet support was re-enabled from vdsm
version 4.40.37 (4.4.4).
3) With 4.4.4 we are also allowed to change cluster type directly without
the need to reinstall the host. However I would advise you to switch
clusters with only ovirtmgmt attached.
4) Unfortunately there is a NetworkManager bug which might make reboots of
OvS hosts difficult [0].
If you have any questions or problems with the setup let us know.
Thank you.
Regards,
Ales
