hi users

I have my dhcpd to serve nothing but virbr0 (libvirt), OS is Centos 7.2
Dhcpd would not start, complaining like this:

Is virbr0 created by libvirt as part of one of its "virtual networks"? If so, why are you using dhcpd rather than the dnsmasq that libvirt already runs for it (and how are you managing to terminate the dnsmasq process run by libvirt so its listening socket doesn't conflict with the listener setup by dhcpd?)
yes, set up like this: 
 <forward mode='route'/>
  <bridge name='virbr0' stp='on' delay='0'/>

It really is simple plain vanilla setup, maybe not common but simple, should be easy to reproduce: libvirtd's only one virbr0 and dhcpd to listen only on this iface.



No subnet declaration for virbr0 (no IPv4 addresses).
** Ignoring requests on virbr0.  If this is not what
   you want, please write a subnet declaration
   in your dhcpd.conf file for the network segment
   to which interface virbr0 is attached. **

and systemctl -l shows:
...
systemd[1]: start request repeated too quickly for dhcpd.service
...

but suffice to restart dhcpd and all works!
I'v customized systemd's service conf, I've put:

After=libvirtd.service
Requisite=libvirtd.service

If virbr0 is created by libvirt, it's already starting a dnsmasq process to handle dhcp requests, so you don't need (and shouldn't be able to start) dhcpd listening on it. If virbr0 *isn't* created by libvirt, then the change to systemd's configuration won't have any effect.


but this did not help.
Would you share your thoughts? Systemd list say it's libvirt (wrong)doing.
many thanks.
