Thanks Daniel Those iface-XXX commands can I use them(partly) now? or where can I see their spec/xml template? Thanks Shahar ________________________________ From: Daniel P.

Hi
I trying to set up a network configuration using libvirt
The setup is:
1. a VM using virtio using a tap device connected to a bridge device 2. on the host side eth0 added to the same bridge device(without ip)
using libvirt application (say virsh) I want to launch this set up:
virsh net-create for the second part virsh create for the first part(tap, virtio, vm etc)
I can set the first part(vm, tap, virtio) using the domain xml but I'm also interested in XMLing the second part and net-create it. I tried but only suceeded in creating the bridge
Is it possible? am I missing somthing?
This isn't what the net-XXX commnads is for. The functionality you are after is in process of being implemented and will appear as iface-XXX commands (for host interface managment) For more info about libvirt networking, read this page http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Networking Daniel -- |: Red Hat, Engineering, London -o- http://people.redhat.com/berrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org -o- http://ovirt.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: GnuPG: 7D3B9505 -o- F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 :|
