<p class=MsoNormal>I am trying to create a separate private network between the
host (domain 0) and the guests. Using virsh, I created a bridge network,
virbr1. I can successfully add guest interfaces to the bridge network and
communicate between the guests. However, I am unable to communicate between the
host and any of the guests. I created eth0:1 on the host and configured virbr1
to forward to eth0:1 (mode=”route” dev=”eth0:1”), but
there is still no communication.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I don’t think creating eth0:1 is the right thing to
do. I think I need to create a virtual interface on domain 0 that is part of
the bridge network, virbr1. However, when I run virsh attach-interface with
domain-0, it fails. <o:p></o:p></p>
