You could use private network addresses (10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12 or 192.168.0.0/16). Your /lib/ndb/local file can then be setup around a subnet like 192.168.9.0/24. According to the following, qemu uses 10.0.2.0/24 when using "user mode networking" and provides a virtual dhcp (10.0.2.2), dns (10.0.2.3) and cifs (10.0.2.4). Using "tap" mode, you get to pick the subnet in qemu-ifup script.
