Hi.
I am currently setting up a new server machine which will host several kvm's
managed largely by libvirt. The network setup though is done prior to libvirtd
startup and shouldn't be touched by it.
So currently everything works just fine with 0.6.0 except that libvirt deletes
the tap device after I shut a kvm machine down which is something I naturally
don't want. I looked through all the documentation I could find but I could
not come up with a solution.
Forgot to mention: all kvm machine are connected through a tap device with no
bridge or whatsoever but 1:1 NAT. This done for performance reasons. As model
I use "virtio".
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Matthias Dahl
