Hi Michal,

Thanks for the analysis, please find the interface details of the dumpxml
$dom

  <interface type='network'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:4f:8d:cd'/>
      <source network='default'/>
      <target dev='vnet0'/>
      <bandwidth>
        <inbound average='10'/>
      </bandwidth>
      <alias name='net0'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03'
function='0x0'/>
