Re: [Xen-users] [CentOS-virt] Upgrade of CentOS and libvirt: need help on configuring network

[Nico Kadel-Garcia <nkadel@xxxxxxxxx>]

Or my old KVM notes,for setting up the networking for TUSK software, at https://wikis.uit.tufts.edu/confluence/display/TUSKpub/Install+KVM+Hypervisor+For+TUSK. Libvirt, NetworkManager, and the system-config-network tools of RHEL and thus of CentOS have no configuration tools that handle pair bonding, and the published directions for pair bonding and bridging needed.... a lot of work, which is why I wrote those.
