Kvm-84 with vde setup, network issues with win XP

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I have successfully set up a vde network, and it works great! The only
problem is that after a the tap device is deleted and created again,
which is inevitable at a host shutdown, after, starting the win Xp sp2
guest with loadvm prevents the network from working, it only starts
working again after a "repair" in the guest. I am using the e1000
driver in the guest. I assume that windows is guilty of this behavior,
but i need to load the snapshots, and the VM should connect to the
network without user intervention.  Is there a work around? Am i doing
something wrong ?

vde configuration:
tunctl -u 1 -t tap0
vde_switch -tap tap0 -mode -unix /tmp/vde.ctl -daemon
ifconfig tap0 up promisc

and start qemu with:

-net nic,model=e1000,macaddr=56:44:30:30:32 -net vde,sock=/tmp/vde.ctl -m 256
