The default bridge that we attach to is br0.  The thinking is that a distro
could preconfigure such an interface to allow out-of-the-box bridged networking.

Alternatively, if a user wants to use a different bridge, they can say:

   qemu linux.img -net bridge,br=qemubr0 -net nic,model=virtio

or:

   qemu linux.img -net 
tap,helper=/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper,br=qemubr0
                  -net nic,model=virtio
With this series of patches, I can also use "bridge" with the option "-netdev". So do you think we need update the doc for 'netdev' too? qemu-system-x86_64 ../rhel61.img --enable-kvm -m 1024 -netdev bridge,br=virbr0,helper=/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper,id=port1 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=port1,id=nic1 

Forgot to point out this in last post. Sorry for that.
