Hi,

Cloudstack does the following:

1. When you configure physical networking of you cloud this should match name 
of the physical network name-label on you XenServer host (let me say 
guest-net).  You can check it with "xe network-list"
2. When you configure guest networks CS asks you for range of VLANs it will 
configure by itself. Let me say you put 500-600
3. When first guest comes, CS registers new VLAN taking ID randomly (upon first 
VM is registered). You can check it by "xe vlan-list" on your host.  CS 
connects VLAN ID to guest network uuid and physical network uuid. 

To work properly you should configure all guest VLANs on your switch and enable 
VLAN ID transitions from one to another.  For instance if your public VLAN id = 
5 and guest VLAN ID=505 you must change it while routing from one VLAN to 
another.  Of course if you remove client from Cloudstack -- you should see that 
corresponding VLAN is removed from you host automatically

Hi,

Yes i'm working on an advanced zone, each one of the clients have it's own
network so his own virtual router. When i delete the clients accounts i do
remove all his ressources so the virtual router.

on my switches the public network is tagged.

is there any possibility that cloudstack is removing the network
configuration on my xenservers ?
because i dont know the event that is tiggring this action so i can't
troubelshoot properly.

Thx.
