Curious if someone could point me to any documentation which describes
the difference between an interface type of "ethernet" vs. "bridge".
I was trying to set up a domain with virsh to use the second nic on a
server, in the process I noticed that the default vnic that was created
during the install was specified as
<interface type='ethernet'>
When I looked at dumpxml after doing a virsh attach-interface, I noticed
the new vnic that was added was specified as
<interface type='bridge'>
During some tinkering I discovered that they are not the same, for
example, I cannot specify
<interface type='ethernet'>
<source bridge='igb1'/>
As the source bridge appears to be ignored. Instead, I *must* specify it as
<interface type='bridge'>
<source bridge='igb1'/>
