I want to ask about network options on virt-manager. I used to have the options shown in the given picture
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?
