Yes Andrei, if you are using Advanced Networking you can leave the default Xenserver install without running the Optional commands.

I am using a shared network without security groups in a basic zone with OVS. No issues over the last 9 months. With a bridge backend you are limited to 2 NICs in a bond on the XenCenter UI, but with OVS you can use 4 NICs.
