Does anyone here have experience setting up virtual networks with qemu? I find the man page for qemu really cryptic and have been unable to find much specific support on the web.

I've have two projects in mind, one is setting up whonix without using virsh, and the other is to create an isolated virtual network between two vms.

I'd be happy to read through anything or your experiences of doing something similar.

With virtualbox at least, it's trivial to create a connection between two vms, but I'm curious about just using qemu.
