This can safely be ignored - in the case of an SRIOV VF that is assigned to the guest using PCI passthrough device assignment, the "model" attribute is meaningless, but libvirt will always fill in the default value (which is rtl8139) in the XML to prevent surprises if the default emulated NIC model ever changes. (I am assuming that you're using either <interface type='hostdev'> or <interface type='network'> pointint to a network that has <forward mode='hostdev'>. If you are instead using "type='direct'" or a network with "<forward mode='bridge|passthrough|vepa'>" then the model *does* matter, and you probably want to set it to "virtio", which is *not* the default because not all guest OSes have a virtio network driver by default (e.g. MS Windows)) _______________________________________________ libvirt-users mailing list libvirt-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users
