nixpkgs/lib/build-vms.nix
Eelco Dolstra 2e38d8cd31 * ZOMG, fixed a giant bug in the networking of distributed VM tests.
It turns out that all network interfaces in all VMs had the same
  Ethernet address (52:54:00:12:34:56) because we didn't specify any
  with the macaddr=... option.  This can obviously lead to great
  confusion.  For instance, when a router forwards a packet, it can
  actually end up sending the packet to itself because the target
  machine has the same Ethernet address (causing a loop until the TTL
  expires), while the target *also* receives the packet.  It's amazing
  anything worked at all, really.

  So now we just set the Ethernet addresses to 52:54:00:12:<virtual
  network number>:<machine number>.
