Hy,
im using libvirt-bin on debian and configured the network of libvirt to
be a standalone bridge. Is there a possibility to run a program after
the bridge has successfully and completly set up by libvirtd? I would
like to restart shorewall (a firewall) when the bridge is set up to
activate MASQ and DNAT and other policies which I need. I would also
like to start my own configured dnsmasq when the interface is up (can't
start it realier because it has to bind to the interface).
I hope thats the right place to ask such a question, if not, please
direct me.
I'm afraid there's no easy way to trigger events on network create or
delete directly via libvirt at this time.
One possible alternative you could try is to use udev. I see udevadm
triggers events ...
KERNEL[1263327559.060277] remove /devices/virtual/net/virbr0 (net)
UDEV [1263327559.107126] remove /devices/virtual/net/virbr0 (net)
KERNEL[1263327570.179500] add /devices/virtual/net/virbr0 (net)
UDEV [1263327570.219653] add /devices/virtual/net/virbr0 (net)
