Does this not work? We have used the network for some things, eg.
running yum and connecting to RHN. There are some limitations in the

The idea of adding --ip and other options to virt-rescue is a
reasonable idea, assuming that the network doesn't work already.

virt-top is 'top' for virtual machines. Tiny program with many
powerful monitoring features, net stats, disk stats, logging, etc.
