That should work for most use cases, but if you really need your guest to be visible on the network and get an IP address from your router you need to use bridged networking. A slightly out of date howto is here: http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Networking It's out of date in that F11 NetworkManager does (I think) support bridging, so it may not be necessary to disable NM.
