 allow qemu, started from non-root user to add interface to bridge.
 2. Create bridge interface to use. You can have several bridges and
 specify which one would be used on VW creation. Really, by manual
 editing of the startup script, you can add several network interfaces to
 VW and connect them to the different bridges.

 3. Setup you host system to forward packets from bridge network to
 outside internet. You can either use NAT, or include your ethernet
 interface into bridge.
 4. Make sure DHCP server is running in the bridge network. If your
 ethernet interface is part of the bridge, VWs would get their dynamic IP
