Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
When enabling IPv6 on all interfaces, we may get the host Router Advertisement routes discarded. To avoid this, the user needs to set accept_ra to 2 for the interfaces with such routes. See https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt on this topic. To avoid user mistakenly losing routes on their hosts, check accept_ra values before enabling IPv6 forwarding. If a RA route is detected, but neither the corresponding device nor global accept_ra is set to 2, the network will fail to start. |

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
