Hi @rrajendran17 could you also take a look at this? |
| Additional NICs are not enabled by default unless you configure them manually in the guest OS, e.g. using [wicked for your OpenSUSE Server](https://doc.opensuse.org/documentation/leap/reference/html/book-reference/cha-network.html#sec-network-manconf) or [netplan for your Ubuntu Server](https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/network-configuration). | ||

| If the virtual machine has one interface connected to the `mgmt` network and another connected to a different network (such as a VLAN), the node may be unable to reach the virtual machine's `mgmt` IP address. This connection issue occurs when the other network's gateway overrides the virtual machine's default route. | ||

There was a problem hiding this comment.
"resulting in routing that prefers the VLAN network for all inbound and outbound traffic, even traffic destined for the mgmt network." is missing.We can provide the same detailed statements under both create and edit vm

Not sure if it will cause confusion since we don't know why it didn't happen on v1.3. |
