My configuration is the same (obtained from copying the file shipped
as /usr/local/share/examples/libvirt/networks/default.xml, which is
identical to src/network/default.xml.in in the libvirt tree) and I
get an error when I try to start the network:
# virsh net-start default
error: Failed to start network default
error: Unable to create bridge device: Invalid argument
The debug log reveals the source of the error to be
virNetDevBridgeCreate:474
I don't understand how that would work for you. My setup is
completely vanilla, just a plain FreeBSD 14.1 install. The only thing
that could possibly be making any difference is that the host's
network interface is a wireless one.
Looks like you don't have the if_bridge kernel module loaded.
If you run 'virt-host-validate', it should show if something's missing.
