How to properly configure kvm (libvirt) with ovs (openvswitch) on CentOS 7?
The task is to run virtual servers on a host available in a virtual local area network. That is, the host must have ip access to the guest OS, the guest OS must see each other and the host, and all must have Internet access. It is assumed that guest OSes get ip from DHCP inside the host (but this does not seem to happen).
I studied enough manuals (eng, rus) but with different configurations the result is the same.
yum update -y
yum -y install epel-release
cat /proc/cpuinfo | egrep "(vmx|svm)"
mkdir -p /kvm/{images,iso,vm}
yum -y install qemu-kvm libvirt virt-install qemu-img virt-top
vi /etc/sysctl.conf
> net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.conf
