Apologies, I meant to add that selinux was tested in permissive and
enforcing mode with no improvement.

I am having difficulty with a network bridge on a Win8 guest at CentOS
7 host boot.
Condition is the Win8 guest is configured to start at host boot. From
a second workstation I ping both the guest and the host. I issue a
remote reboot of the host. Both are responding to pings until the
reboot. After the reboot, the host begins to respond and shortly
afterwards the guest [sometimes] responds as well...for a time. Then
I lose connectivity with the guest. To recover, I issue a "virsh
reboot guest-name" command. Then connectivity with the guest is solid
until the host is rebooted again. Is this a "race" condition? Is it
a configuration issue? Or, is it simply a bug?
The requested information is as follows:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz running on an Assus MOB
qemu-kvm.x86_64 10:1.5.3-126.el7_3.5
CentOS 7.3 Linux 3.10.0-514.10.2.el7.x86_64
guest is Windows 8.1-64bit 2GB RAM, 2vcpus cpu host
Since the host cpu is exposed to the guest, the NIC defaults to the
rtl8139 type.
brctl show results:

I would guess the following as the start command requested:
/etc/libvirt/qemu/autostart/vWIN8.xml
Again, system runs solid if I issue a virsh reboot command to the
guest. Why I need this? I have an autostart feature required of a
[internal] customer scheduled on their Win8 guest. It is network
dependent. I am unable to run it currently, because of this
particular issue. Hence, I am a slave to the Win8 guest on every host
reboot. Any suggestions? And/or point me to a forum where I may be
able to get assistance with this.
Thank you,
