Hi friends! I'm using libvirt 0.8.1 with qemu-kvm 0.12.4 on Linux 2.6.34. At the moment there are 2 virtual machines running inside that host without problem. They are using the macvtap feature for networking share. But I can't do ping from the host to the guest, but I need this. And whatever communication between them. Ping with other host is normal. Below follows the xml domain definition of one guest: <domain type='kvm' id='2'> <name>vox2</name> <uuid>2e143f6e-5506-8073-c5fc-3ea92fc2b579</uuid> <memory>524288</memory> <currentMemory>524288</currentMemory> <vcpu>2</vcpu> <os> <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-0.12'>hvm</type> <boot dev='hd'/> </os> <features> <acpi/> </features> <clock offset='utc'/> <on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff> <on_reboot>restart</on_reboot> <on_crash>destroy</on_crash> <devices> <emulator>/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64</emulator> <disk type='file' device='disk'> <source file='/virtual/vox2.qcow2'/> <target dev='sda' bus='scsi'/> <alias name='scsi0-0-0'/> <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' unit='0'/> </disk> <controller type='scsi' index='0'> <alias name='scsi0'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x04' function='0x0'/> </controller> <interface type='direct'> <mac address='52:54:00:2f:fe:3d'/> <source dev='eth0' mode='bridge'/> <target dev='macvtap1'/> <model type='virtio'/> <alias name='net0'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/> </interface> <input type='mouse' bus='ps2'/> <graphics type='vnc' port='5901' autoport='no' keymap='pt-br'/> <video> <model type='vmvga' vram='9216' heads='1'/> <alias name='video0'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x02' function='0x0'/> </video> </devices> </domain> P.S.: The default network of libvirt is disabled. -- *Eduardo Ramos* Asterisk Manager Linux User www.freedominterface.org +55 12 81129581 exten=>eduardo,1,hangup()
