I tested this with Nisim's test OVA file and it works for me. ‘--print-source’ shows the MAC: ... NICs: Network "Network adapter 1" mac: 00:0c:29:72:1e:79 ... Libvirt output contains the MAC: ... <interface type='network'> <source network='Network adapter 1'/> <model type='virtio'/> <mac address='00:0c:29:72:1e:79'/> </interface> ... I'm vaguely worried we might see a form of the MAC with dashes instead of colons, but let's not worry about that until someone provides a real sample of one. Therefore: ACK.
