In a recent expansion of the documentation on network forward modes, I incorrectly stated that incoming sessions to guests on routed networks were blocked. This is true for guests on NATed networks, but not routed. This patch corrects that error, and adds a pointer to the nwfilter page for those who do want to restrict incoming sessions to hosts on routed networks.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
