Hi Michal, By the way, I noticed ipv6 loopback IP addresses in your pcap. As I normally try to capture on nic where migration carried out, I thought of checking with you if your wireshark could dissect libvirt RPC in such pcap too (captured on a nic) ?.
During migration, I do not see any traffic on loopback and I think it is expected, but thinking how you get those captured ?. Any pointers/suggestions ? Appreciating your help.
Sure. Usually, when you are connecting locally ("qemu:///system" or "qemu:///session") client and server talks on an unix socket. I forced them to talk via loopback where I had wireshark running by: 1) configuring libvirtd to listen on network socket too (listen_tcp in libvirtd.conf, passing --listen argument to the daemon cmdline) 2) connecting to qemu+tcp://localhost/system Michal
