If u don't need the host to access the internet via eth2, there is no need to assign an IP to eth2 or br-ex the VM's will be able to access the internet via br-ex, which is via eth2 in turn to access internet. You can assign an IP to br-ex so that your host can use it.

I understand what you are saying, logically makes pretty good sense. However, my questions were geared towards understanding why the eth ports on the controller-node is configured the way they are as per the document/diagram. Per the description, it seems the setup is done so the VMs will have internet access, so why is no IP assigned to eth2. And why is an IP address assigned to eth1, and where did the IP address come from. Is there some typo in the document (which I really doubt) or most probably lack of understanding on my part.
