You can combine bridged and routed setup - for example, use bridging for storage, routing for internet and user access. Using routed setup have one more advantage - you can use firewall on host to filter guests' traffic. _______________________________________________ CentOS-virt mailing list CentOS-virt@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt
