Re: [libvirt-users] grep ip address from KVM DHCP log
Thank you Michal! I found the file.
Do you mean there is a libvirt API for this? I did not find `virsh
net-dhcp-leases default` on my KVM host.

Hi,
this is the area that is somewhat actively worked on.
The leases file is located under
/var/lib/libvirt/dnsmasq/default.leases, however I'd strongly recommend
using libvirt API for that:
virsh net-dhcp-leases default
BTW: it's not KVM's default network. The network is created and managed
by libvirt ;-)
