Hi, sorry to resurrect this question. I am now using a virtio network interface in a qemu VM. Is it possible to use ifplugd to automatically setup the IP configuration of a KNI based interface? Here is the output of lspci: 00:03.0 Ethernet controller: Red Hat, Inc Virtio network device 00:04.0 Ethernet controller: Red Hat, Inc Virtio network device 00:05.0 Ethernet controller: Red Hat, Inc Virtio network device 00:06.0 Ethernet controller: Red Hat, Inc Virtio network device
Thanks for your help. Olivier.
