Re: [libvirt-users] sttic vnet device for guest
❦ 28 octobre 2016 14:32 -0700, Michal Privoznik <mprivozn(a)redhat.com> :
vnet* devices are created by libvirt when a domain is being started
(or
on device hotplug). In general, unless all devices would be statically
allocated, it would be impossible to guarantee certain vnet name.
However, what you can do is to create the device yourself and then just
tell libvirt to use it:
<interface type='bridge'>
<source bridge='vnetX'/>
</interface>
I think that libvirt will just dismiss the interface because of its
prefix and creates another one itself. It would work with another prefix.
