I think multi-NIC support for virtual instances is great if you can design complex virtual network architectures, which is not the case now in Nova.
So a first step could be multiple VLANs per zone. This requirement would cascade new needs like virtual switches, QoS in virtual ports, and of course multi-NIC support. - Diego Parrilla nubeblog.com | [email protected] | twitter.com/nubeblog +34 649 94 43 29 On Wed, Feb 2, 2011 at 2:05 PM, Ewan Mellor <[email protected]> wrote: > That's a good question.
