Ok ! One more thing, When we define a guest using the virsh and 
enumerate KVMRedirectionSAP , the lport of the ElementName/Name will 
contain the port value in the used in the XML file and the looks 
something like 5900: -1 (where 5900 is the port value used in the XML).
But defining the guest using the DefineSystem() returns a value of -1 : 
-1 in the ElementName/Name.
The DMTF - 1076 does not specify how the value of ElementName/Name filed 
should be. Is this expected behavior ?
