Hi,

Also I have tested earlier 3.0.2 and if you create multiple networks for the 
same account then the VM automatically gets that many IPs and NICs as many 
network the VM has.
Then you can use static nat if you need to support multiple websites.

Or another solution to this is to have many static nat IPs on the same network 
and port forward each IPs port 80 and 443 onto a different port on the VM and 
configure apache to listen on different ports for different virtual hosts.
There is always a workaround.

As you probably know CS hands out IPs via DHCP to multiple NICs today, and it 
is challenging to work reliably since different guest OS's have different 
behavior with respect to setting/re-setting the default route in DHCP replies.  
Today CloudStack has some knowledge of guest OS to make this work but we've 
seen bugs with that where the list of guest OS behavior is not right.  Those 
are fixable.  But there are other cases (e.g. boot from ISO, a user changes the 
DHCP client post-create, or the user upgrades the OS which changes the DHCP 
client) where I don't think there is a reasonable fix.  So I think we need at a 
minimum an option to disable DHCP reply on NICs that are not the default route. 
 We should even consider a behavior change to make that the only option.
