yes, your right i can see the host, which is good, makes it easy to transfer files into guest through the mikrotik files.

acknowledged, so normally (ie. not my setup) a bridge is created IN the KVM guest, correct?

I have updated to regular 5.0 and lately 5.1, and havent had problems since.

i dont think (or in fact know) that I had a default route setup on the guest. the problem was i wasnt really sure about how to configure the routes in the kvm guest. i know it was able to see the virtual adapter with the "discover -t network" command, so I knew i was close; but didnt know ...

Resolved Issue: forget all the stuff above about reconfiguring the various KVM guest files issue was primarily the Mikrotik kvm setup: what I did to fix: Create a “bridge” component /interface bridge add name=bridge1 Then create connecting port/ether to bridge /interface bridge port add bridge= brid...

virtio - should be the fastest.. makes since. and since there is an alias of eth0 to virtio - it should work. but doesnt! thats why i am wondering if something is missing in KVM instance or in Mikrotik config itself. routes.jpg ping.jpg i found some network help page that said to: delete the /etc/ud...

acknowledged. the first step, setting up the dynamic virtual interface in mikrotik i had already done, but deleted and recreated according to the manual page. the problem is must be the linux kvm setup?! what should the /etc/network/interfaces file look like? mine has: auto lo iface lo inet loopback...

Sorry to bother, but again the "manuals" here are pretty useless when it comes to kvm stuff. i have an x86 Mikrotik v5.0 and have Debian kvm guest. but cant for the life of me get the kvm to access any network anything outside the kvm ( ie, wont access host network abilities ) i have tried...

yep -- sure does...

setting vnc to 0.0.0.0 - keeping the ":2"
vnc went to the routers ip (20.4.7.6) using console 2

Nice.... the problem is "console" may or may not show anything. you have to set the "vnc server" address for the kvm be the IP addr assigned to the MikroTik. Thus "/ip address print" (showing unit IP address) is included in the "kvm" entry. -------------------...

I am downloading these 9.10 versions:

• ubuntu-9.10-alternate-i386.iso
  ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso

Thanks for the help.

actually we were encountering this alot too.
so we back versioned to v5.0rc10

I have the MikroTik x86 device (Lanner FW-8755) and trying to setup Centos 5.5 as KVM. MikroTik OS v5.0rc10 The Manual:KVM page is useless in the procedure needed to setup any kind of linux version as a KVM guest in MikroTik. Can someone point me to such a setup procedure? There are several entries ...

Wow Feklar , thanks for the further followup and help; will make changes and let you know.

Omg, that worked, sweet!

Bummer, wish I could say those 3 changes worked, but it didnt.
Something else I must be missing perhaps?
