Do I need to create the vnet7 device before hand? I thought this might be something
libvirt created on startup. Or, is the define error related to something else? My
current XML file appears to be well formed.
Looking at the code, I think the error message is misleading. In fact
the problem appears to be that you need to have:
<interface type='bridge'>
<source bridge='br0'/> <!-- NB -->
<target dev='vnet7'/>
<mac address="11:22:33:44:EE:FC"/>
</interface>
Dan is this intended behaviour or a bug?

The error message is wrong - the syntax you show with bridge='br0' is
the intended format.

Dan.

New subject: [Libvir] update after changing XML
Thank you very much for your help. I have submitted a bugzilla report
asking to update the documentation to fix the bridging XML problem, as
well as perhaps look at the associated error message.
At this point I have my ethernet bridge br0 configured with the IP
192.168.1.23 and my host network looks great. When I start qemu the
vnet0 adapter is added to the system, and added to br0. My guest copy
of linux comes up with one ethernet adapter called eth0 and I set the
guest ethernet address to 192.168.1.24.
With all this in place however the guest machine cannot see the network.
Am I still missing a configuration step?
