<p class="MsoNormal">I have a VM with network filtering enabled, specifically the clean-traffic filter.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Through virsh, I modify the configuration to reflect changes like this:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <filterref filter='clean-traffic'></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <parameter name='IP' value='192.168.10.10.'/></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"> </filterref></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">This only allows those two specified IP’s to communicate on the VM. I’ve defined the xml through virsh.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Now, if I start the VM directly through virsh, those rules apply and work correctly. I can add any other random IP from the same subnet and it does not work, as expected.
Only the two Ip’s specified above will respond.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">This unfortunately, makes the VM appear to be down from with the ovirt dashboard if it’s started manually through virsh.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">If I edit the machine through virsh but do not start it and then go onto oVirt to start the VM, it seems the configuration is not loaded – does oVirt load a different configuration
file other than /etc/libvirt/qemu/machine.xml?</span></p>
