This feature has been requested for a very long time. However,
we had to wait for guest agent to obtain reliable results as
user might create totally different structure of interfaces than
seen from outside (e.g. bonding, virtual interfaces, etc.).
That's the main reason why sniffing for domain traffic can
return bogus results. Fortunately, qemu guest agent implement
requested part for a while so nothing holds us back anymore.
To make matters worse, guest OS can assign whatever name to
an interface and changing MAC inside guest isn't propagated
to the host which in the end see original one.
Therefore, finding correlation between interface within guest
and the host side end is left as exercise for mgmt applications.
This API is called virDomainInterfacesAddresses (okay, maybe
too many plurals) and returns a dynamically allocated array
of virDomainInterface struct. We agreed on this in previous versions.
