Thanks for the reply Matt.
I created a Linux Container(container1) using lxc-tools. I created a
Domain(container1_vm) using libvirt and want to mount that container
file system in the created Domain. For that, I created following XML
format:
<domain type='lxc' id='1'>
<name>container1_vm</name>
<memory>500000</memory>
<os>
<type>exe</type>
<init>/bin/sh</init>
</os>
<vcpu>1</vcpu>
<clock offset='utc'/>
<on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff>
<on_reboot>restart</on_reboot>
<on_crash>destroy</on_crash>
<devices>
<emulator>/usr/libexec/libvirt_lxc</emulator>
<filesystem type='mount'>
<source dir='/var/lib/lxc/container1/rootfs/rootfs'/>
<target dir='/'/>
</filesystem>
<console type='pty' />
</devices>
</domain>
The above XML worked fine, and domain started.
Now, I created a bridge br0 in the host machine with the IP 172.16.1.10.
I want to assign an IP address[172.16.1.15] to the domain, so that the
host machine and domain will ping each other. I tried to assign
'default' network to the domain by adding the following XML block to the
above XML file:
<interface type='network'>
<source network='default'/>
</interface>
But, when I start the domain I got the following error in the virsh
console:
error: Failed to start domain vm1_fedora
error: Failed to add veth0 device to virbr0: No such device
Can you please let me know the XML format for assigning a statis IP
address to the Domain?
Regards,
Srikanth.

The best documentation is available here:
http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html
If that's not enough, could you post an example of what you're trying to
do? Doesn't matter if it's wrong.

The domain XML is a valid XML document. Syntactically, you can put /
anywhere it would be valid in an XML document.
