I have decided to migrate my latest KVM server to CentOS 6.0 and am beginning to get a little frustrated with some issues that worked perfectly in 5.6.<div><br></div><div>Right now I've given up on getting virbr0 and NAT to work, but now I need networking bridging to work, but nothing seems to fix the issue. I have not had much experience with troubleshooting KVM so could really use some pointers on resolving this issue.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I have successfully bridged one of the server's NICs to br0, and I can ping the IP remotely that is assigned to br0, but none of the VMs that worked in 5.6's KVM are able to access the network. Please let me know what information would be useful to troubleshoot this.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Here's what I have so far...</div><div><br></div><div>ifcfg-eth3...</div><div>---------------------------------</div><div><div>DEVICE="eth3"</div><div>HWADDR="00:1B:21:A1:CF:76"</div>

</div><div><br><br></div><div>sysctl.conf has these 3 additional lines...</div><div><div>net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables = 0</div><div>net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables = 0</div><div>net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-arptables = 0</div>
</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Again I can ping br0's IP remotely , but no VMs assigned to it can access even that network's gateway. I have disabled iptables and ip6tables for now while trying to get this to work. The VMs , worked just fine in 5.6 and I have done nothing different but import them with virsh.</div>
