I use pfsense with ovirt, and it works out pretty good for me. It's the only distro that will work with Comcast IPv6 correctly. 

What is your network topology? 
Are you using vlans?

You can also evaluate the installation of the Neutron virtual appliance as described here [1].
The Neutron virtual appliance is an easy way to deploy OpenStack Neutron service within an oVirt environment: you can easily use Neutron from oVirt as an external networking provider starting from a ready to use image.
Neutron can manage Open vSwitch to achieve the required network topologies.
