The Load

This will be a short write up on how to configure the networks I defined in The Crux write up.  It should apply for most "bridge" centric builds.  This is just more of a companion reference.

 

Virtual Machine Network Configurations

When creating a virtual machine on the CLI or if like me you create small script files and use virt-install, 

virt-install \
--name sweetname \
--description "Awesome Rocky Server" \
--ram 16384 \
--disk path=/vsto/machines/sweetname.img,size=120 \
--cpu host \
--vcpus=4 \
--cpuset=auto \
--os-variant=rocky8.6 \
--accelerate \
--network bridge:ovs1 \
--graphics vnc,listen=0.0.0.0 \
--video virtio \
--cdrom /sto/vm/images/rocky-minimal.iso

The network line "--network bridge:ovs1" should be modified to use the new OVS bridge networks. 

 

 

 

 

<interface type='network'>
  <mac address='xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx'/>
  <source network='ovs3' portgroup='guest0'/>
</interface>
