Please help to check, Thank you. It won't complain at all if there is no RA route set on the host. To reproduce, you need to setup a machine acting as an ipv6 router with radvd on the guest network. Do you actually have an RA route for the enp0s25 device? You can check it by running `ip -6 r`. These routes are indicated with 'proto ra' -- Cedric -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
