Description

Hi,

I've now got migratekit migrating a couple of VMs.

However, when I log into them they have no networking. Trying arp just hangs for example (I've tried a lot of other things too).

I've attempted installing drivers, etc, on the VM before migration to see if that helps, but I still have no networking. FYI, here's what I installed:

yum install -y qemu-guest-agent libvirt-daemon-driver-qemu qemu-kvm-core kernel-headers kernel-devel kernel-modules-extra
depmod
dracut --force

I've checked the security groups.

Is Migratekit supposed to handle networking during migration, or is this expected behaviour from migratekit?
