OVH Failover ip with KVM on Ubunutu 20.04? [help]

Hi,

Any one here have the exact setup for OVH Ip failover with KVM support on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.
It's not the same exact steps as Ubuntu 18.04 as show here?

Thanks

    The main problem is how to setup KVM with bridge so I can use the failover ip's.

    Thanks for your help and pointing me to the right direction.

    I thinks this will work with KVM

    But the main issue is using NAT as default network while kvm need bridge so it can fetch the failover IP.

    The basic setup steps required for OVH are described here:
    https://docs.ovh.com/ie/en/dedicated/network-bridging/

    1. Create a bridge containing your NIC.
    2. Statically configure main IP and physical MAC to the bridge, disable STP.
    3. In OVH control panel assign virtual MACs to your failover IPs.
    4. Bridge the KVM guest's virtual NIC and assign it the previously registered MAC.
