setting bridge for VMs IP assignment by router's DHCP server
I am running a libvirt hostmachine (Fedora 40) which has 192.168.1.6 IP
address, assigned by router's DHCP server.
I want the libvirt VMs IPs to be assigned by router's DHCP server, so I
tried to setup a bridge via
# virsh net-define foo.xml
and trying the following files as xml file, but they all failed to
achieve the task. Here I list the two XML variants I tried to use
1)
<network>
<name>bridge-no-nat</name>
<bridge name='virbr1_no-nat' stp='on' delay='0'/>
<forward mode='open'/>
</network>
RETURNS:
open forwarding requested, but no IP address provided for network
'bridge-no-nat'
2)
I created in nmtui the bridge virbr1_no_nat then I used following XML
for virsh net-define
<network>
<name>br1_no_nat</name>
<forward mode='bridge'/>
<bridge name='virbr1_no_nat'/>
<virtualport type='openvswitch'/>
<portgroup name='default'/>
</network>
then I configure the VM network to use but when I start the VM I get error:
internal error: Unable to add port vnet1 to OVS bridge virbr1_no_nat: <null>
Do you know how I can solve this?
Thank you
