<para>The Management Server automatically creates a virtual router for each network. A virtual
router is a special virtual machine that runs on the hosts. Each virtual router in an isolated
network has three network interfaces. If multiple public VLAN is used, the router will have
multiple public interfaces. Its eth0 interface serves as the gateway for the guest traffic and
has the IP address of 10.1.1.1. Its eth1 interface is used by the system to configure the
virtual router. Its eth2 interface is assigned a public IP address for public traffic.</para>
