Add new network
* '''name'''
The content of the name element provides a short name for the virtual network. This name should consist only of alpha-numeric characters and is required to be unique within the scope of a single host. It is used to form the filename for storing the persistent configuration file. Since 0.3.0
* '''uuid''': The content of the uuid element provides a globally unique identifier for the virtual network. The format must be RFC 4122 compliant, eg 3e3fce45-4f53-4fa7-bb32-11f34168b82b. If omitted when defining/creating a new network, a random UUID is generated. Since 0.3.0* '''bridge''' : The name attribute on the bridge element defines the name of a bridge device which will be used to construct the virtual network. The virtual machines will be connected to this bridge device allowing them to talk to each other. The bridge device may also be connected to the LAN. When defining a new network with a <forward> mode of "nat" or "route" (or an isolated network with no <forward> element), libvirt will automatically generate a unique name for the bridge device if none is given, and this name will be permanently stored in the network configuration so that that the same name will be used every time the network is started. For these types of networks (nat, routed, and isolated), a bridge name beginning with the prefix "virbr" is recommended* '''forward''' : Inclusion of the forward element indicates that the virtual network is to be connected to the physical LAN.Since 0.3.0. The mode attribute determines the method of forwarding. If there is no forward element, the network will be isolated from any other network (unless a guest connected to that network is acting as a router, of course). The following are valid settings for mode (if there is a forward element but mode is not specified, mode='nat' is assumed):** '''nat''''''Bold text''' : All traffic between guests connected to this network and the physical network will be forwarded to the physical network via the host's IP routing stack, after the guest's IP address is translated to appear as the host machine's public IP address (a.k.a. Network Address Translation, or "NAT"). This allows multiple guests, all having access to the physical network, on a host that is only allowed a single public IP address.
Add the new network based on the new file:
