For your virtual machines (VMs) to connect over a network to your host, to other VMs on your host, and to external network locations, you must configure VM networking. The RHEL 10 hypervisor and newly created VMs have a default network configuration, which you can modify.

For example:

• You can enable the VMs on your host to be discovered and connected to locations outside the host, as if the VMs were on the same network as the host.
• You can partially or completely isolate a VM from inbound network traffic to increase its security and minimize the risk of any problems with the VM impacting the host.
