Re: Virtualisation: Network problems

[Gottfried]

Hi Chris,

thanks for your answer

 does:

~sudo virsh net-list~ show a network?

yes, it shows a network: ("ja" means yes)

gfp@Tuxedo ~$ sudo virsh net-list
 Name      Status   Automatischer Start   Bleibend
----------------------------------------------------
 network   Aktiv    ja                    ja

Hello,

manually.

If virsh doesn't show a network, you can try (locate a
=default.xml= on your machine):

#+begin_src sh


  sudo virsh net-autostart default
  sudo virsh net-start default

#+end_src

Obviously I would prefer a cleaner way, but I haven't looked further
into this yet. If anyone knows the answer, I would appreciate it.

PS: Just for completeness, the =default.xml= looks like this:

#+begin_src conf

  <network>
    <name>default</name>
    <bridge name='virbr0'/>
    <forward/>
    <ip address='192.168.122.1' netmask='255.255.255.0'>
      <dhcp>
        <range start='192.168.122.2' end='192.168.122.254'/>
      </dhcp>
    </ip>
  </network>

#+end_src
