Using Wireshark in KVM Guest

0

Hi there,

is it possible to capture network traffic in a linux kvm guest with network bridge? Maybe it is a fundamental problem to capture from virtualized guests?

My setup looks like: KVM host (debian squeeze) bridge device br0 on eth1
KVM guest (centos 5.5) has bridge interface br0 configured as bridge (rtl8xxx)
Two real computers with centos 5.5 and physical eth0

All computers are connected with a hub and the network connection is fine. I want to capture for e.g. pings between the two real computers .
