With SLES12, that message is now incorrect. For SLES11 SP3 it is necessary to reboot for things to work. You won't be asked to configure a bridge at this point, and it's not needed, and won't work. > Could you point me to documentation on a macvtap setup? The easiest way is just to use virt-manager to create a new KVM guest. It should automatically create the macvtap interface for you.
