Hi!
First, thanks for answering.
Yes, the network is already started, and I think I have installed the tools needed (as I previously installed qemu, qemu-kvm, libvirt-bin, bridge utils, virt-manager and stuff), so I think I get them. About the bridge, yeah! The vribr2 exists and is created once I use the virsh commands I said in the previous message, And, if I use the brctl show commands, I see that my VM's interface is already attached to the bridge, so that's why I do not understand what can be happening.
Thanks!

Hi,I've seen this before.First, the simple steps:have you started that network? (virsh start network-name)do you have installed the tools to work with bridges in your OS?can you check if the bridge exist in your OS and if the vm's interface is attached to it? In rhel you use the command brctl to do that, don't know about ubuntu...Best Regards,DROn Thu, Apr 16, 2020 at 7:32 PM Computers Issues <computerslover123@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Hello there,I wanted to share a problem I'm having with libvirt, for the case someone here could know how to solve it.I'm using an Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, I have libvirtd already installed and I think I got all the dependencies installed. So, I'm using virsh net-create to create this network:<network>

<ip address='192.168.150.1' netmask='255.255.255.0'>
<dhcp>
<range start='192.168.150.2' end='192.168.150.254'/>
</dhcp>
</ip>
</network>And then I create a domain with this xml:<domain type='qemu' xmlns:qemu='http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0'>

</domain>They both work as I created them in a different computer and everything works. But I'm trying it on my other Ubuntu machine, and once virsh creates the network and the domain, my VM never get an IP from that DHCP range. This is libvirtd log:abr 17 00:48:11 usuario-System-Product-Name dnsmasq-dhcp[13741]: DHCP, IP range 192.168.150.2 -- 192.168.150.254, lease time 1h

As I said, exactly the same configuration worked in a different machine, I don't know why it does not work here.Thank you so much!!
