I want to “change” it to bridged network. The GUI is not letting me change anything on the network section. How do I change it to be bridged ? Thanks, Jerry

Are you sure, that the virtual-machine is powered off while you are trying to change the network interface? suomi
First, create the bridged network device, if you don’t have one (where “eth0” is your network interface name): virsh iface-bridge eth0 br0 –no-stp You may need to restart libvirtd; I don’t recall. Power down your VM, and then you should be able to change its network configuration.
