[libvirt-users] <source mode='private'> for PPPoE?

HI!

I'm currently reviewing my (functional) setup with one physical ethernet interface eth1
of the host system being connected to a VDSL modem (not router!). A fully virtualized
guest acts as router with this source mode:

	<source dev='eth1' mode='bridge'/>

Reading the docs [1] I'm thinking whether mode='private' would be a better choice because
the network packets are supposed to be sent exclusively to the VDSL modem and received
from there.

Any thoughts?

Ciao, Michael.
