The dhcp range element is contained in the <dhcp> element of one of a
network's <ip> elements. There can be multiple <range>
elements. Because there are only two attributes (start and end), and
those are exactly what you would use to identify a particular range,
it doesn't really make sense to modify an existing element, so
VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_COMMAND_MODIFY isn't supported for this section,
only ADD_FIRST, ADD_LAST, and DELETE.
Since virsh already has support for understanding all the defined
sections, this new backend is automatically supported by virsh. You
would use it like this:
virsh net-update mynet add ip-dhcp-range \
"<range start='1.2.3.4' end='1.2.3.20'/>" --live --config
The bridge driver also already supports all sections, so it's doing
the correct thing in this case as well - since the dhcp range is
placed on the dnsmasq commandline, the bridge driver recreates the
dnsmasq commandline, and re-runs dnsmasq whenever a range is
added/deleted (and AFFECT_LIVE is specified in the flags).
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.
