Huh - so indeed, AFAIK there is no mentioning of the networking bridges in
this quick quide...that's funny.

Please follow the Basic Zone networking guide from this page  (in your case
you don't use vlans as far as I can see):
http://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/en/4.11.1.0/installguide/hypervisor/kvm.html

In short your eth0 should be part of bridge named cloudbr0 (you VMs will be
on your inner network, next to your MGMT server on same subnet, right)?
If so just make "eth0" part of the "cloudbr0" network bridge - and THIS
NAME !!!  (not the IP addresss...) is what is used as KVM TRAFFIC LABEL (in
this case, for both management and guest network) - so once more - name of
the INTERFACE (in this case name of the bridge - that is "cloudbr0") is
what should be set as the KVM traffic label.

The way above will work (just FYI if interesting), CloudStack will search
for physical interface which name matches the "KVM traffic label" and will
join any automatically provisioned VM interfaces (vNIC) to this bridge -
give or take (it works a bit different on Advanced Zone), but I believe
this is true for Basic Zone.

Please give feedback.

Thanks
Andrija

So please fix that - and let me know if that works for you. I will try to
see to update this Quick guide.
