Networking in FreeBSD 8.1 x64 on KVM

Just a quick note on network functionality for a FreeBSD 8.1 64-bit guest on KVM (http://www.linux-kvm.org): type “virtio” was a no-go, but a network device of type “ne2k_pci” seems to work like a charm:

  

  <devices>
    [...]

    <interface type='bridge'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:53:65:83'/>
      <source bridge='br0'/>
      <model type='ne2k_pci'/>
    </interface>
    [...]
  </devices>

Loving this KVM/virsh setup in my home lab so far.
