Hi,
Is anyone having problem using virtio NICs for the Linux guest VMs (Ubuntu 12.10, CentOS 6.4, and Fedora 18)? My guests can ping any domain ( www.yahoo.com, www.google.com, etc) fine without any issues. However, when I do system updates (ie yum repolist, yum update, apt-get update, apt-get upgrade), it doesn't get out to the internet. But when I changed the NIC to e1000, everything works fine. I think the problem is with Linux implementation of virtio-net as guest because the same environment setup works fine for FreeBSD 8.x.
TIA, Tommy

Au contraire, mon frère. Libvirt & virtio_net - fonctionne très bien. :)
