[libvirt] F12beta guest will not connect to LAN via bridge

Setup: HOST: F11 x86_64 GUEST: F12beta x86_64 I have a number of guests setup on this host and all connect without a problem with the 'br0' bridge on the host. I created a new guest and loaded F12beta on it. I defined it to also use 'br0' networking but this guest cannot ping anything on the LAN. All the other guests have no problems communicating to addresses on the LAN. Details: ### on HOST: # brctl showmacs br0 port no mac addr is local? ageing timer 1 00:0b:82:11:bc:cb no 15.88 3 00:0c:01:30:50:00 no 16.37 2 00:0c:01:40:50:00 no 2.51 1 00:0c:29:e3:bc:ee no 0.49 1 00:18:f8:48:27:15 no 2.51 1 00:18:f8:9b:ba:b4 no 116.39 1 00:18:f8:9b:ba:b5 no 20.60 1 00:1a:4d:5e:f6:36 no 156.43 1 00:24:1d:19:05:cf yes 0.00 3 06:1d:1d:7a:31:9b yes 0.00 2 06:ba:11:dd:7b:08 yes 0.00 1 54:52:00:24:5e:cf no 28.93 # EXISTING GUEST: network interface in xml file: <interface type='bridge'> <mac address='00:0c:01:30:50:00'/> <source bridge='br0'/> <target dev='vnet0'/> <model type='virtio'/> </interface> # NEW GUEST: network interface in xml file: <interface type='bridge'> <mac address='00:0c:01:40:50:00'/> <source bridge='br0'/> <target dev='vnet0'/> <model type='virtio'/> </interface> ### on EXISTING GUEST: DEVICE=eth0 ONBOOT=yes BOOTPROTO=static HWADDR=00:0c:01:30:50:00 IPADDR=192.168.1.200 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK=192.168.1.0 ### on NEW GUEST: DEVICE=eth0 ONBOOT=yes BOOTPROTO=static HWADDR=00:0c:01:40:50:00 IPADDR=192.168.1.210 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 GATEWAY=192.168.1.1 NETWORK=192.168.1.0 TYPE=Ethernet IPV6INIT=no USERCTL=no ### on EXISTING GUEST: # ping 192.168.1.1 succeeds ### on NEW GUEST: # ping 192.168.1.1 fails with Destination Host Unreachable Is there something else I need to configure in F12beta to get this working? -Gerry

I defined it to also use 'br0' networking but this guest cannot ping anything on the LAN. All the other guests have no problems communicating to addresses on the LAN. The only thing I can find is that the new F12beta guest does not have 'bridge' module loaded in kernel as compared with a working existing F11 guest. I tried loading the 'bridge' module but this did not make any difference after restarting the network. I then tried rebooting the guest but then the 'bridge' module is not loaded again. Is the 'bridge' module necessary? I thought I had read where this was no longer necessary for guest bridging.

The only way I can get bridged networking to work in the F12beta guest is by selecting "Hypervisor default" when adding Network device. If I select "virtio" it fails. -Gerry
