Hi,
Actually udev renames the eth0 interface in guest to eth1 because
macvtap0 has different mac address then eth0 on host..
Is there some way so that we can prevent changing this rename of eth0 to
eth1 on guest. I don't want to change udev files.

Hi all,
My test environment
Host os=rhel6.1
Guest os = rhel6.1
Libvirt=0.9.8
Kvm hypervisor
I have made this entry in guest xml file
<interface type='direct'>
<source dev='eth0' mode='bridge'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
slot='0x03'
function='0x0'/>
</interface>
Now when I start the guest
#virsh start guest
Following macvtap0 is created on host and is shown below
#ip link show macvtap0
51: macvtap0@eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq
state UNKNOWN qlen 500
link/ether 52:54:00:55:AE:B5brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
but when the guest is up and I try to perform
# ifup eth0
It gives following message
"Bringing up interface eth0: Device eth0 does not seem to be present,
delaying initialization.
[FAILED]"
The interface name may change to ethN(N may be 1 or 2 ...) due to the
change of guest interface mac address.
You can log in guest and use command: "ip link show" to get the value
of N.
Then create ifcfg-ethN for it and use "ifup ethN" to start it in guest.
Guest eth interface does not create. What is the problem?
When I checked dmesg on host it gives following message-"macvatp0: ipv6
routers not present"
Please let me know how macvtap work on kvm.
