Hi
I have just deployed CloudStack on a set of brand new servers. I have deployed an "Advanced" zone and that all seems to be working quite well. I am looking to offer a mixture of the following:
VPC instances for customers who require elastic compute and per hour billing etc...
and
VPS servers for customers who require just a handful of VMs
The issue I have is that I cannot figure out how to create VMs for the VPS services which simply have a public IP address. Essentially, I am trying to use basic networking in an advanced zone for some of my services.
I have created a basic network service offering (DHCP, User Data). I then created a shared network from this but am unable to connect VMs to this network during the process of creating a VM.
I am considering the idea of separating my VPS and Elastic Cloud services into separate zones (one basic, one advanced) if I can't achieve this. Ideally, I would prefer not to do this as it would mean running separate hypervisors.
Can anybody shed any light on this?
Regards

Hi Peter Deegan,
If the requirement is to create networks where the vm gets public IP and the routing is taken care by an existing router in the infrastructure ( router not managed by Cloudplatform) then you could create a network offering for shared network with required services and create a network using this network offering.
