Sorry, just realized there is a VMmanager app too (free version seem to only have support for Debian 7 though.) I am using the Virtual Machine Manager GUI (virt-manager.)

virt-manager is what I'm talking about (don't know what you mean by "VMmanager"). Probably the dialogs have changed - mine is v1.2.1. 0.9.5 sounds a bit old, you should see if there is a backport of a newer version somewhere for whatever distro you're running.

Alternately, it is dirt simple to create a new network that has no IP address associated with it. Just do this:

1) create a file with these contents:

    <network>
      <name>mynetname</name>
    </network>

2) "virsh net-define filename.xml" (where filename.xml is the file containing the above XML)

3) "virsh net-autostart mynetname; virsh net-start mynetname"

(all these run as root)
