<p><font size="3" face="serif">Trying to setup something similar to the Demo Setup described on the Openstack Quantum Admin Guide posted at: </font><a href="http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-network/admin/content/app_demo.html"><font size="3" color="#0000FF" face="serif"><u>http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-network/admin/content/app_demo.html</u></font></a><font size="3" face="serif">.

<p><font size="3" face="serif">For the Network Node it says three network interfaces are required:</font>
<p><font size="3" face="serif">>The node must have at least three network interfaces. The first is used to communicate with the controller node,<br>
>this is via the management network. The IP address of this interface should be configured to 100.1.1.12/24.<br>
>The second interface will be used for the VM traffic, this is on the data network. The third interface will be used to<br>
>connect to the external gateway on the network. This interface will be bridged to the Open vSwitch bridge "br-ex" interface.</font>
<p><font size="3" face="serif">1- Anyway we can set things up with only one or two interfaces? This is a real requirement or just to make the demo setup easier to implement?</font>
<p><font size="3" face="serif">2- Right now I only have two interfaces on my server and if I connect either of them to br-ex my server (the node and all the VMs on it) becomes unreachable. Right now I want to have only one single server for my experiments so I really do not need the network for VM traffic.</font>
<p><font size="3" face="serif">3- Is the br-eht1 bridge required for VM to VM communication is there to deal with namespaces? Earlier all I had to do to connect VMs on the same network together was to connect say eth1 directly to br-int. Now, there is this additional br-eth1 that needs to be created.</font>

Hi Bilel,<br>
<br>
Don't worry, the Quantum team is working hard on docs for Folsom as we speak.<br>
<br>
At an extremely high-level, the two main things that Quantum provides are:<br>
<br>
1) A rich tenant-facing API for defining networks. This let's tenants<br>
create rich network topologies, including multiple private networks,<br>
multi-tier web applications, etc. and choose which IP subnets are used<br>
on these networks (this even works if two tenants decide to use the<br>
same subnet).<br>
<br>
2) Quantum has pluggable backends that allow cloud operators to use<br>
more advanced network technologies on the back-end. For example, you<br>
can use Open vSwitch tunneling to avoid limitations around VLANs or<br>
take advantage of a plugin that is aware of advanced hardware<br>
capabilities.<br>
<br>
The Quantum Admin Guide is still in draft form and we're hoping to<br>
have a publicly consumable draft near the end of this week. That<br>
should provide the additional details about specific capabilities.<br>
