[ovirt-users] Logical Networks with different MTUs

Hello Cam,

The problem you described seems to be similar to the described in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1242227.
The mentioned bug was fixed in one of the recent oVirt builds.
The updated Ovirt code allows to mix networks (regardless of them being VM
or non-VM) on a single NIC with the following conditions:

   - not more than one non-VLAN network in conjunction with any number of
   VLANs
   - MTU of the VLAN networks have to be equal to that of a non-VLAN one if
   such exists

So I'd advise you to update you oVirt to the latest build.

Regards,
Yevgeny
