Hi all:
I have some kvm host(rhel 6.4, 2.6.32-358.0.1.el6.x86_64), I ran several windows guest on it(more than 10 guest on one host and the guest os are win7-32/win7-64/win2k8), but the guest network kept down automatically, lost package. I tried virtio drive and e1000 drive,but it didn't work. However, when I run cmd.exe ping some other subnet ip it worked.
The host and guest are connected by bridge.
Here is some configure infomation of my guest:
    <interface type='bridge'>
      <mac address='aa:aa:aa:49:39:71'/&! gt;
      <source bridge='kvmbr3'/>
      <model type='e1000'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/>
    </interface>
brctl show as follow:
kvmbr2 8000.b8ca3a5cbea2 no eth2
vnet0
vnet11
vnet13
vnet15
vnet17
vnet19
