finally have time for this again

got the interface for host-vm communication up and running with the libvirt nat bridge, i mean i have it at hand why not use it? (this totally wont come back to torment me).

Weird thing is that by using -netdev bridge... qemu doesn't assign an ip to the tap in the host and idk if it is a requirement cuz i did setup the ipvtap interface with an ip on the host and an ip on the vm.
Idk how qemu sets up the tap interface behind scenes, maybe because of iptables shenanigans and the NAT thing

Can someone explain how it works? I guess not having an IP on the host tap interface makes more sense than having one
