between, thus I<"foo:1234-1234-1234-1234">).
+=item B<InterfaceFormat> B<name>|B<address>
+
+When the libvirt plugin logs interface data, it sets the name of the collected
+data according to this setting. The default is to use the path as provided by
+the hypervisor (the "dev" property of the target node), which is equal to
+setting B<name>.
+
+B<address> means use the interface's mac address. This is useful since the
+interface path might change between reboots of a guest or across migrations.

Set the incoming interface for IP packets explicitly. This applies at least
