Sine we do have
<interface type='mcast'>
already wouldn't it be better to have something like
<interface type='ucast' protocol='udp'>
This possibly could be better, my concern would be now tcp is configured
differently than udp, no? Or are you saying something like:
<interface type='ucast' protocol='udp|tcp'>
My concern here is this would be a bigger change and does libvirt have a
stable xml configuration guarantee?
Thanks,
