23.6 Summary

By default, KVM virtual machines are connected to a virtual network that uses NAT to provide access to the network to which the host system is connected. If the guests are required to appear on the network with their own IP addresses, the guests need to be configured to share the physical network interface of the host system. As outlined in this chapter, this can be achieved using either the nmcli or nm-connection-editor tools to create a networked bridge interface.
