Thanks Baldur. I am definitely planning on doing that.

Eric, no the VMs are not all segregated, they are all blended
together. You can find a 192.168 sharing the same physical host as a
10.10.
I've never played with OpenVSwitch before, though. Would introducing
it here lead to any further complexities?

The slightest misstep and you will be down until you arrive at the site. So
do not even think about trying this. You go there and you do it at night,
when the impact of a mistake is less.
