The guest was setup through virt-manager. The machine is not configured
much after a F20 install (I believe I didn't change any network things)

 Here is the network part:

   <interface type='direct'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:fe:b0:66'/>
      <source dev='em1' mode='bridge'/>
      <target dev='macvtap0'/>
      <model type='virtio'/>
      <alias name='net0'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03'
function='0x0'/>
    </interface>


and the complete dump:
