Bug Description

libvirt or qemuy seem to install a local interface (virbr0 on 192.168.122.*) and network and DHCP server for use with VMs. Openstack makes no use of these. When installing libvirt, remove the settings that configure this default network.

Without doing this we run the (minor) risk of someone using 192.168.122.* for one of the real interfaces.

It's the default network libvirt does to provide NAT connectivity to VMs

virsh net-autostart default --disable (to prevent start)
virsh net-destroy default (if already there)

Thanks for this ticket. I got burned by this today. Accidentally tried to use 192.168.122.* before realizing this.
