    Last time I tried Virt manager, I couldn’t figure out bridge networks and ended up corrupted the XML config for the VM. Skill issue for me I guess

      im a networking idiot so apologies if this doesnt work for your needs

      if you leave the NAT virtual NIC and add a 2nd one, type MACVTAP, make device name your real NIC (ent01 for me).

      Now you can access guest on your host and on other LAN devices without needing a bridge

      (Spent yesterday figuring this out)

      Bridge networking should be as simple as selecting “bridge” in the network interface setting and putting the name of your bridge interface… You can create a bridge interface with Network-Manager. Or use macvtap.
