The idea is to create a bridge device, and then bridge the guests tun/tap device with the bridge and your ethernet device. This way they all appear transparently on the network.
The net config on that website should be fine for the host, and then pass these command options to qemu -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,mac="52:54:00:12:34:56" -netdev bridge,id=hn0,br=brkvm You can change the mac address to your liking. -- Simon Thelen
