Re: [libvirt] device type 'interface' cannot be attached

I'm using libvirt 0.6.2 on F11 x86_64 and CPU supports hw

an error that the function is not supported by the hypervisor device
type 'interface' cannot be attached. Is this command not supported?
Or is there something special I need to do? I found it in the man page.
I have a private network declared now, thank you Mark.
And here is how I am trying to attach an interface:
# cat PRIVBR0.xml
<network>
<name>PRIVBR0</name>
<bridge name='privbr0'/>
<ip address='172.19.0.1' netmask='255.255.0.0'>
</ip>
</network>
# virsh net-list --all
Name State Autostart
-----------------------------------------
PRIVBR0 active yes
default active no
# virsh attach-interface CC bridge privbr0
error: this function is not supported by the hypervisor: device type 'interface'
cannot be attached
# grep emulator CC.xml
<emulator>/usr/bin/qemu-kvm</emulator>
I tried the 'attach-interface' both while the domain is running and while
shutdown. Neither works.
Can anyone see something wrong in what I'm doing here or the reason that
'attach-interface' is failing?
