So far my current VMs that work, I see there network as; Host device vnet 0 (Bridge 'br0') I do not see a; Host device vnet# (Bridge 'br6') My ints of interest are set to jumbo so thats not a prob. I think the prob is that I am missing the vnet bridge device for eth6. So I'm curious why its not there and how do I create it? - aurf
