In that case... How do I make a guest use a specific tap? Quoting from my initial post, my -net options are: -net nic -net tap,name=tap11 -net nic -net tap,name=tap12 I think I am getting a packet storm -- which explains why my br0 and everything on it crashes -- but that's probably because the "name=" options are being ignored, and instead KVM is bringing up two new taps, probably both attached to br0. So, what's wrong with my "name=" options? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
