Re: Advanced Physical Networking query
Hi, Create advanced isolated network. In advanced isolated network VMs gets internal ip address from the virtual router DHCP ip address. On network you can acquire public ip address which get configured on the VR. To the reach VMs from the public side you can configure the either port forwarding or static nat rules along with firewall rules on the public ip address.

Re: Advanced Physical Networking query
Thanks for the replies guys. @Abhi - Cool, its non-gsoc related so don't want to spend too much time at it. Just felt I should learn more about Cloudstack within my spare time(weekends) outside of its code base and user authentication methods. Think I nearly have it working the way I want, there's the odd terms that confuse me a little so I might take you up on your IM offer.
