[libvirt] Executing scripts when bridge interface becomes available

Hi, I'm using libvirt on a CentOS 5.4 host (so my libvirt is quite old) with a routed setup. My configuration is easy and works reliable as far as I can tell now. As far as I know, I have to add routes manually (so that the host knows which IPs need to be routed to the virbr1). My ip command looks like this: /sbin/ip route add <guest ip> dev virbr1 scope link Currently I have really problems finding the right spot where I should configure the routes and it looks like libvirt does not offer any support for that. 1. I can add the route when my network comes up because virbr1 is not available at that time. 2. If I switch my vm to the 'ethernet' interface, I can use a custom script but then I have to do all the network setup myself which looks like overkill and time-consuming (as I have to rebuild things that libvirt already does perfectly). I just want to add some routes... To me the perfect solution would be either: a) have start/stop scripts defined in the network configuration b) have start/stop scripts defined in the vm configuration - Does libvirt 0.7 offer things like that? (I could not find something in the documentation) - Is there an obvious way that I missed when it comes to route configuration? fs
