Hi, back in 2010, this list had a short thread about regular bridges not showing up in the network source list in virt-manager. The gist of the thread was "use virt-manager 0.8.4 and you'll see bridges". Now, seven years later, I have virt-manager 1.4.0 on the admin machine (Debian unstable) and libvirt 2.9 on the server (Debian stable), and I still have to select "Specify shared device name" in the network source list and enter my bridge name myself, while physical interfaces and macvlans show up automagically. While I do understand that macvlan is the hot stuff at the moment and people want us to use those, there is a gazillion use cases of classical bridges, for example when the guest needs to talk to the host or when the party providing network access to the host routes additional IP addresses to the host IP instead of arping for them on the physical network. Is there still a technical reason why virt-manager doesn't show regular bridge interfaces in the interface dropdown? Can I help with local configuration or am I stil stuck with manually entering "br0"?
