[pve-devel] API to get mac and vm id

[Alexandre DERUMIER]

I don't know what exactly stefan want do do with perl.

For me, I would like to be able to specify ip address for each vm interface in promox gui,
then maybe this can configure an external dhcp server or other daemon which can do dhcp.

I know that libvirt have this feature, but I really don't know how the implementation is done.

OK, can someone explain how to 'simulate a dhcp server with perl'? 
(Why not use 'dnsmasq' - or a real dhcp server)?
