Laine,
Though I can't remember the particulars, I have a vague memory of the
sysctl settings in that article indeed solving the problem of traffic
not being forwarded on the bridge when I had configured no filtering on
the guest - hence my attempt to share what worked for me. Perhaps it
would be good to update that page.
Yeah, I had completely forgot of its existence until there were two
unrelated references suddenly made to it in the last week.
I looked around for a link to create
an account on the libvirt wiki but could find none. I'm happy to go do
some more research around the items you mentioned and add a quick note
to that page to keep from leading people astray in the future, if I
could get an account on the wiki. Do you know how I would do that?
I actually tried to update the article after this second reference, and
found that my password no longer works. Awhile back the decision was
made to deprecate the wiki and slowly move content into "knowledgebase"
articles that are included in the project git repo, and I think the wiki
may have been made read-only at that time. I had planned to ask about
that in IRC yesterday, but either forgot, or it was too late to catch
anyone by the time I asked (I've even forgotten what happened yesterday :-/)
Anyway, even in the days when the wiki was "active", automatic account
creation was disabled to prevent spam articles, so creating an account
required sending a message to danpb asking for an account; these days I
think he'd just say "don't bother - it's going away anyway".
Thanks anyway for the offer to update it though (and also for piping in
with the idea in the first place - hopefully my response didn't come off
as discouraging responses - even though it wasn't the source of the
problem this time, next time yours might be the idea that solves the
issue :-)).
I'll try to take care of the wiki article in the next day or two.
Thanks,
Tom

That information is *very* out of date; the situation has changed quite
a lot since that was written in 2014.
Filtering of packets traversing a bridge device are now only
filtered if
the br_netfilter module is loaded, which isn't done by default. It *is*
autoloaded if certain types of iptables rules are added(I can't
remember
the details of the type of rule though - there was a bug in iptables a
year or so ago where autoload of br_netfilter was triggered by libvirt
attempting to *remove* a rule of whatever type it was).
Anyway, unless "lsmod | grep br_netfilter" shows that you have
br_netfilter loaded, this entire path is a red herring (if you do have
it loaded, unload it, and try to figure out why it was loaded).
(Interestingly, this is the 2nd time this particular outdated page has
come up in the last week. Has something else broken somewhere that's
causing people to search out this page?)
