Saurav, A method I have used in the past is to create a new Gust Physical Network which uses the same NICs as the Management Traffic (in this case it was a XenServer environment where the Management Traffic had a dedicated Bond).
Then I created a Guest Network with the same VLAN ID and CIDR as the Management Network, obviously using a range of IP which was not already in use. If I recall correctly, cloudstack did not let me do this directly, so I had to manipulate the settings in the DB. Then simply create a VM on this network, and they are on the Network as your Management Infrastructure. If you have to create a 2nd Guest Physical Network, you will need to implement Network Tags ALL of your Network Offerings, however if your Hosts have only a single Bond, then this step is not required. You obviously need to run this past your security people, as you could be opening up holes in your system.

I have a shared network called "Admin" where I run my admin services like logstash, Nagios, collectd, remote syslog server etc. L3 routes are also in place to ensure that Vms on the Public subnet can reach the admin VMs on the shared Admin network. All VMs are configured to push data to the log server, mon servers etc. > What I am trying to achieve is push the management server logs to a > guest vm(deployed by the root admin user) which will parse/index the log > files. > It appears that since the guest vm is not part of the system > management network, the cloudstack management server is unable to reach it. As long as you have routes in place (and proper firewall rules to allow traffic), you would be able to push your logs from guest VMs (or physical hosts like hypervisors) to the designated log collection server(s) buffy:~ shanu$ traceroute log1.prod.internal traceroute to log1.prod.internal (192.168.65.102), 64 hops max, 52 byte packets 1 gw (192.168.44.1) 1.499 ms 1.260 ms * 2 gw2-1 (192.168.44.251) 4.906 ms 1.512 ms 10.242 ms 3 192.168.65.102 (192.168.65.102) 3.961 ms 3.597 ms 4.418 ms 192.168.44.1 is my edge router which has routes to reach my shared admin network 192.168.65.0/24 via 192.168.44.251.
