I want to ask about network options on virt-manager. I used to have the options shown in the given picture Image host device eth0 : macvtap host device wlan0 : macvtap and I would see the eth0 and wlan0 interfaces when I want to forward NAT to eth0 in virt-manager when adding a new virtual network. I'm on Debian 11 after installing qemu kvm virt-manager and the extras and everything related sudo apt install qemu-kvm libvirt-clients libvirt-daemon-system bridge-utils libguestfs-tools genisoimage virtinst libosinfo-bin virt-manager libspice-client-glib-2.0 libspice-client-gtk-3.0 qemu-utils sudo adduser $USER libvirt-qemu sudo adduser $USER libvirt sudo modprobe macvtab macvlan but still after restart, the macvtap options are not there whatever I do. Of course, I enabled macvtab in the kernel and even if I add it using: ip link add link eth0 name macvtap0 type macvtap mode bridge/or vepa / or passthrough still doesn't show. eth0 and wlan0 options or other interfaces like proton0 [created by ProtonVPN] or tun0 created by OpenVPN do not show up when I try to create a new virtual network on virt-manager and forward NAT to any of these interfaces. What's the problem here? How can I get these options again? enter image description here
