Yes, and how do I get shorewall to work with that?

Oh I don't have one yet.  It seems I need the bridge interface before
creating the VM, and I can't set that up before understanding this
bridge thing and how to get it to work with shorewall (unless I just use
the currently unused eth0 to make the bridge interface.  I'm trying to
actually understand and figure it out, though.  Perhaps I don't need to
kinda waste a physical interface, and perhaps it won't work.)
