   Thanks @weizhouapache — good fix, but I think it solves a different problem.
   
   #12651 makes CloudStack correctly *see* what IP a Windows guest already has, 
once it's running on KVM. This issue is about making the guest *have* the right 
IP in the first place — carrying the static config over from the source VM 
during conversion.
   
   Two practical blockers: it needs the guest agent (not guaranteed, and for 
cold migration the source isn't even running), and `domifaddr` only reports the 
current address — it can't tell us whether the guest was static or DHCP, and 
gives no gateway or DNS. That static-vs-DHCP distinction is the whole crux 
here, and it's why the `virt-v2v --mac ip:` attempt was dropped from #13656.
   
   So I'd keep #12651 as-is — it's a real fix and the two are complementary — 
but this one still needs the source-side config read.
