Description

This test case verifies that Xen DomU networking works correctly, including the ability to attach/detach network devices.

From the dom0, attach a new virbr0 type interface to the rawhide domU
```
$> virsh attach-interface rawhide bridge virbr0
```
Inside the guest, run
```
$> ifconfig
```
You should be able to see it.
Trying pinging the gateway from it
```
$> ping -I eth? -c 2 192.168.122.1 
```
From the dom0, disconnect the interface from the rawhide guest
```
$> virsh detach-interface rawhide bridge
```

Try adding at least 16 with something like this

$>for i in `seq 1 15` ; do virsh attach-interface rawhide bridge virbr0 ; done

Now repeat the steps but with type xenbr0, i.e. use
```
$> virsh attach-interface rawhide bridge xenbr0
```
to attach.

The network devices should be presented to the domU on attach-interface, and removed from the guest on detach-interface.
The rawhide guest should be able to use the network interfaces.
