Overview
Method 1
The simplest method is to leave the network interface unconfigured on the virtualization host and to assign it to the guest in configuration with virsh edit as follows:
...
<interface type='direct'>
<source dev='eth0' mode='private'/>
</interface>
...
Note that after saving it, libvirt will update the stored configuration as follows:
...
<interface type='direct'>
<mac address='52:54:00:02:72:ed'/>
<source dev='em2' mode='private'/>
<model type='rtl8139'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x08' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
...
Note that the MAC address declared in the configuration is different from the MAC address declared by ip addr on the virtualization host.
