Yes, except that it *does not work*. As you can see below, libnss-libvirt
is installed and configured, but the VM "KVM-Ubuntu-GNS3-Server-17.04" is
not reachable through its DNS name.

A few possible explanations for that issue are:
- something is not configured correctly
- there is an incompatibility with NetworkManager
- there is a bug with libnss-libvirt
- I'm missing something

The --leasefile-ro argument is added unconditionally, just like
--dhcp-script. If you want to do name translation, either have static IP
addresses and edit the hosts file, or use NSS module:
