There's a good reason you can't find anything out about it: It doesn't do that. The VSWITCH works only with OSA, not with HiperSockets. Sorry. To connect to HiperSockets, you can either give each Linux guest a connection to the real HiperSocket or give just one of the guests on the VSWITCH a HiperSockets connection and route everyone else thorough that guest.
