Document the complete network and DNS architecture for deploying a Single Node OpenShift (SNO) cluster as a KubeVirt VM using the Agent-based Installer on an OCP 4.22 host cluster. Covers: - Pure L2 Multus isolation via software-defined Linux bridge (br-sno) - Domain naming decision and wildcard DNS strategy - IP plane architecture with strict network plane separation - dnsmasq-based DNS on bastion-vm with loop prevention - VM specification, install-config, and agent-config details - AAP boundary and separation of concerns - Laptop access via sshuttle - Validation results (6/6 pre-deployment, live verification passed) - Known issues: OSAC-5005, OSAC-5002, OSAC-3828, OSAC-5239, OSAC-4882 - Deployed configuration files (dnsmasq, NAD, CoreDNS patch, bridge) Signed-off-by: Ameya Sathe <asathe@redhat.com> Assisted-by: chai-bot rh-pre-commit.version: 2.4.0 rh-pre-commit.check-secrets: ENABLED

Document the SNO egress path.
The AgentConfig sends off-subnet traffic to the host bridge at 192.168.100.1. The guide states that this endpoint does not provide NAT, while the SNO VM has no masquerade NIC and external access must flow through bastion-vm. The guide does not document forwarding, NAT, or a return route from the host bridge to the bastion. Without an undocumented path, external traffic can fail. Document the deployed forwarding path and its prerequisites, or state that external access is unsupported and remove this default route.

Configure forwarding through the DNS Operator.
dns-default is generated and updated from dns.operator/default settings. Editing the ConfigMap directly is not the supported persistent configuration path. Add the osac.pool.se-lab.eng.rdu2.dc.redhat.com zone and 192.168.100.2 upstream under spec.servers, then verify the generated Corefile. (docs.redhat.com)

docs: add disconnected SNO-VM network and DNS architecture
Document the complete network and DNS architecture for deploying
a Single Node OpenShift (SNO) cluster as a KubeVirt VM using the
Agent-based Installer on an OCP 4.22 host cluster.
Covers:
Summary
Adds
docs/disconnected/setupdisconnectedSNO.md, a deployment guide for a disconnected OCP 4.22.6 Single Node OpenShift cluster running as a KubeVirt VM on an OCP 4.22 host.The guide documents the
br-snoMultus bridge, IP and DNS plans, sibling-domain naming, dnsmasq configuration, VM and Agent-based Installer settings, and the AAP/installer boundary. It also covers laptop access, validation results, known issues, and deployed configuration examples.Affected areas
The document reports six pre-deployment simulation checks and successful live deployment checks. These are reported results in the documentation, not independently verified test results.
Risk classification
Applied label and criteria: unavailable. The supplied context does not include the criteria for
risk:ship,risk:show, orrisk:ask, or identify which label was applied. The change is documentation-only based on the available summary, but that alone does not establish the required label under unspecified criteria. Whether it was close to another classification cannot be determined from the supplied evidence.
