Without this live migration with dinamic routing software (ospf with quagga or bird) bring packet drops.

Maybe just delete (and later re-add) the IPInfo would be less disruptive?

This is reasonable default. I'm use link status when vm running, for example if we have ddos - I down tap and via ospf route deleted and traffic blackholed. > > > Yeah, I can see the utility of that.

So will it be okay to have the patches I've made in this release (which should handle proper operation for everything except the "need to modify the state while the guest is running" case)? I don't think any of that will need to be *un*done to support this new attribute, and it would be nice to have something in the next release that works at least in the default situation... Thanks, I'm happy with this. </blockquote> Can you ACK Patches 2/3 and 3/3? </body> </html>
