Hi Carlos Thanks for your prompt reply. Can you please help clear my confusion about one network settings:
1. If I defined a FIXED network, can I presume I created VLAN for a bunch of VMs, when a VM was deployed, I can see a vnet0 is created automatically (when I run ifconfig –a to check network interfaces). Is this vnet0 a virtual switch and bridged by br0? 2. I saw some posts talked about IP masquerading, should I enable IP masquerading on host machine for Vms? 3. Why would I need a an extra CDROM mounted and associate it with network contextualization? 4. Is is possible that one can untilze VDE (virtual distributed ethernet) as the VM interface? Many thanks for your help!

Hi Yan, Running Windows guests is supported, and I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be able to get the IP from your external DHCP server. You can even use the contextualization mechanism: the extra CDROM is mounted, and the IP can be inferred from the IP. Unfortunately we don't provide network contextualization scripts for Windows.

We are not up to the level to control the DHCP server for the whole network (which means we can't define the MAC/IP association by FIXED networking), the host will be assigned an IP automatically. Is it possible to make the Windows guest to get IP leased from the DHCP server as well?
