hi, i have the following situation. my host system is running debian lenny and kvm. i have 2 ethernet interfaces of which i like to use eth0 for administration of the server itself without traffic from any guest systems. eth1 is connected to a different switch where i have numerous vlans. i have successfully setup a guest running virt-install using a bridge interface on the host system. here the debian config for br1 which i used: auto eth1.700 iface eth1.700 inet manual auto br1 iface br1 inet manual bridge_ports eth1.700 bridge_fd 9 bridge_hello 2 bridge_maxage 12 bridge_stp off i was now looking into the xml file for the guest hoping to find a way to use 2 ethernet interfaces for the guest one on br1 and another on br2 where br2 would be configures as br1 above on the host, just in a different vlan. how can i do that ? the network section of the xml fine lookes like this: <interface type='bridge'> <mac address='54:52:00:xx:xx:xx'/> <source bridge='br1'/> <model type='virtio'/> </interface> is there possibly a way of installing a guest with virt-install to give the guest eth0 and eth1 which are in different vlans on the hosts eth1 ? thanks for your help !
