I didn't notice this the first time through: it used to be that you
could just specify the network/bridge to connect to, without giving an
explicit MAC (so that you use a random MAC)
We definitely want to keep that ability. I think the above should be
changed so that the behavior is (1) you need to specify nnics networks
and/or bridges (2) you may specify up to nnics explicit MACS, with the
meaning that successive -w and -b options talk about successive
interfaces, and explicit MACS are assigned to them in sequence. For
interfaces that don't have an explicit MAC assigned, we'll generate a
random MAC.
For example,
virt-image -b br0 -w default -m 00:16:..
would connect the first interface to the bridge 'br0' on the host, and
the second interface to the 'default' network. The first interface would
get the explicit MAC assigned, whereas the second one would get some
random MAC.
