As I've replied in the BZ, this is something that Libvirt can improve on. What happens when guest changes a MAC address is that NIC_RX_FILTER_CHANGED event is emitted and libvirt processes it (mostly to update guest XML, but not limited only to that). But, Libvirt does not forward this event further to users. Therefore, if a mgmt app on the top of Libvirt wants to keep track of MAC addresses, it can't do that simply. > - "Guest agent should report interfaces from non root network > namespaces" https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2025296 > <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2025296> This is a bit tricky to achieve. There's no easy way to list all nsids (they don't form a hierarchy like other NSs). We could traverse all mount points (be aware of mount namespaces), all PIDs (be aware of PID namespaces) and hope we covered all net NSs (a net namespace can have no nsid). IOW, network NSs behave different to other namespaces. Michal
