Enabling Hyper-V Network Virtualization to route across IP subnets in Provider Address Space

I've just tested out the new Microsoft SDN (a.k.a network virtualization) in Hyper-V 3.0. In summary, Hyper-V network virtualization enabled different VMs to be connected on the same L2 virtual subnet, even though the underlying Hyper-V hosts are running across various IP typologies  If you're looking for GUI to enable this new feature, you'll be in for disappointment, as SCVMM 2012 has yet to incorporate it at this point (except SCVMM SP1 Beta). Only PowerShell cmdlets can be used at the moment. To make things easier, there is a demo script available for you to download and modify. The script can be used without modification provided you've setup the Hyper-V infrastructure according to the given instructions. The demo setup should look like this:

According to above diagram, the blue VMs belong to blue tenant and the red VMs belong to the red tenant. Each respective color VM can only connect to same color VM residing on another host on the same virtual subnet of "10.0.0.0/24". Despite the overlapping IP address range, both color networks are virtually segregated by different VSIDs. Each pair of virtual IP and MAC address has to be "registered" with the underlying host IP address (i.e. Provider address) using New-NetVirtualizationLookupRecord cmdlet.

Notably, both Hyper-V hosts are connected on the same L2 subnets i.e. 192.168.4.0/24 (known as Provider Address" in the demo, which is so "unreal". In the real world, it's far more likely for providers hosts to be connected across different IP topology and subnets. Let's assume Host 2 be placed on "192.168.6.0/24". Using the same script won't suffice, you'll have to use the "New-NetVirtualizationProviderRoute" cmdlet to inform the underlying hosts how to reach the cross subnet.  After changing Host 2 provider address and adding a gateway router in-between both hosts, the new network setup should look like this:

Let's modify the original script (replace with actual Host and Gateway addresses accordingly):

1) On line 287, from:  New-NetVirtualizationProviderAddress -ProviderAddress "192.168.4.22" change to New-NetVirtualizationProviderAddress -ProviderAddress "192.168.6.22" to reflect the change in Host-2 physical IP address.

2) After line 274, add this for Host 1:

New-NetVirtualizationProviderRoute -InterfaceIndex $iface.InterfaceIndex -DestinationPrefix "192.168.6.0/24" -NextHop "192.168.4.1" -CimSession $Hosts[0]

3) After line 287, add this for Host 2:

New-NetVirtualizationProviderRoute -InterfaceIndex $iface.InterfaceIndex -DestinationPrefix "192.168.4.0/24" -NextHop "192.168.6.1" -CimSession $Hosts[1]

4) Clear the existing records by running "Remove-NetVirtualizationLookupRecord" on both hosts, re-run the script and both VMs should be able to ping each other again.
