Hi, I'm noticing that different places in the docs assign either a bridge interface or a physical interface when referring to the "public_interface" configuration option. To wit, on this page in 2 separate example nova.conf files public_interface is set to eth0 and br100: http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/admin/content/sample-nova-configuration-files.html On this page it refers to vlan100 which, I'm told, is the name of a physical nic. http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/admin/content/associating-public-ip.html The description of public_interface on the nova.conf reference page is unhelpful in this regard, too (although the default appear to be eth0, which should be a good clue): http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/admin/content/compute-options-reference.html So, what should it be? The bridge interface configured/built by openstack or the physical device name? Thanks, Dan -- Dan Yocum Sr. Systems Engineer OpenShift | PaaS by Red Hat dyocum at redhat.com
