For that, you would need to get the output of "virsh net-dumpxml passpool-enp2s0f0". If, as you have indicated in your next message, the guest sees the same hardware type as what is physically on the host, then you are using <forward mode='hostdev'> in your network (and no, libvirt would not "do that for you", you or someone else would have needed to configure the network "passpool-enp2s0f0" in that way). > <interface type='network'> > <mac address='52:54:00:51:af:0e'/> > <source network='passpool-enp2s0f0'/> > <model type='rtl8139'/> > <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x07' > function='0x0'/> > </interface> > In a win 2008 guest OS is missing drivers for this device and I wonder > what is that it gets? >> > > _______________________________________________ libvirt-users mailing list libvirt-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users
