I am a bit stuck though. I've created the vm with a tap device:
<interface type='ethernet'> <mac address='00:1a:4a:1b:d9:cc'/> <model type='virtio'/> <rom bar="off"/> <source> <ip address='192.168.42.41' family='ipv4' peer='192.168.42.42' prefix='32'/> <route family='ipv4' address='192.168.100.0' prefix='24' gateway='192.168.42.42'/> </source> </interface>
After starting, the link stays down and no ips or routes are being created:
No surprise to me: this feature has been implemented for the lxc driver and the qemu driver doesn't care about these config bits.
I feel like I'm missing a step. Who is responsible for setting the

Qemu has the possibility to set up the ip address directly only with -net nic. For a tap device, this has to be handled by qemu-ifup / qemu-ifdown. -- Cedric
