Assign IPs to KVM guests with DHCP

[glitch003]

Hi, I want to assign static IPs to KVM guests with DHCP while running the guests in bridge mode. I purchased IPs and have them currently pointed at the host, so all I need is to have the host assign them to the guests with DHCP.

I want to use DHCP so that a user on a host OS doesn't need to configure any networking, it should auto-configure. I know this is possible with KVM but I'm not sure how to do it with proxmox specifically.

Thanks!!

Well I figured it out on my own. The key is to use the "Routed Configuration" from this page: http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Network_Model

Then, simply install dhcp3-server and configure it to hand out IPs to vmbr0.
