[libvirt] hooking a physical nic to a bridge with net-create

[Shahar Klein]

Thanks Daniel

Those iface-XXX commands
can I use them(partly) now?
or
where can I see their spec/xml template?

Thanks
Shahar

after is in process of being implemented and will appear as iface-XXX
commands (for host interface managment)
