  Hmm, then how to enable the network? Below are the steps:

  1) Firstly, I create a networkpool by virsh, and then set it as default. 

 <network>
  <name>cimtest-networkpool</name>
  <uuid>aae93257-4100-4ebb-bf9a-70456abdbf93</uuid>
  <forward/>
  <bridge name='bridge-test' stp='on' forwardDelay='0' />
  <ip address='192.168.122.1' netmask='255.255.255.0'>
    <dhcp>
      <range start='192.168.122.2' end='192.168.122.254' />
    </dhcp>
  </ip>
</network>

  2) Then I create a guest with specified mac address such as 
00:11:22:33:44:55
  3) I'm not sure how does provider allocate real ip address to the guest? 
If I want 
     to connect to the guest, how to get its ip address?

  Thanks!
