Hi Clayton, This might help you a bit.

I ask because the process of creating a new network offering seems a bit daunting without understanding how all of those pieces connect. The admin guide has some references to each of the different things noted above but nothing to really show how they interact with each other. For example, when creating a new offering there is an option called "Specify VLAN" to which the Admin Guide states: "Specify VLAN. (Isolated guest networks only) Indicate whether a VLAN should be specified when this offering is". That's great, but where exactly is that VLAN ID specified and how does this relate to a physical or virtual interface? I'm happy to write up this documentation, but I would just need a better base understanding of these things so I could do some experimentation and do a write-up.
