Hi! after reading the "4.4.0 -> 4.4.1"-thread on the list, I think I'm prepared for an Update. Running the management-node on Ubuntu 14.04 and following the documented update procedure (which leads to something easy as apt-get upgrade), I've noticed that there are no packages for 4.4.1 available

No, we use only software VR. Client "reserves" IP from the pool and assigns to VM it wants. Cloudstack manages it well. I guess you may partition the public IP range for every client separately, but haven't tried to do it. Vadim. -Original Message- From: Andrija Panic [mailto:andrija

I would also add a point about networking - hypervisors use different approach for traffic labelling. We tried to combine Xen and KVM within one zone of "advanced networking" and failed. KVM has to have different bridges for public/private networking while Xen uses one bridge per-physical NIC.
