Long story short, depending on what your quemu supports libvirt has a preference function that tries to pick the most widely supported NIC model: http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=blob;f=src/qemu/qemu_domain.c;h=0a85ee9d74f6c69a10275dbed5e4d9800d073ffb;hb=HEAD#l3180 We don't query the OS in any way for the list of supported NIC models. However, looks like virt-install has some logic on this matter too which actually consults the guests OS (well, libosinfo): https://github.com/virt-manager/virt-manager/blob/master/virtinst/osdict.py#L450 Michal _______________________________________________ libvirt-users mailing list libvirt-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users
