Re: [libvirt] Missing libxl_device_nic settings

Then how do I set ip address when a VM has to use bridged network with specific ip? Clearly libxl supports it, but I don't see any way to set it though libvirt.

So I patched myself but I'm not so sure about VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_ETHERNET. It seems like vif-route, correct? If you want to use a routed setup, consider a 'network' type interface. E.g. <interface type='network'> <source network='routed-network'/> </interface> where 'routed-network' is a libvirt network with |<forward mode='route'/>.
