virsh provides 
         net-start <netname-or-id>
to activate an inactive network.


Does virsh provide any way to do the exact converse?   deactivate an active network without destroying, undefining, removing, ...


Also  -  I am curious   -  what does activate actually do?    What change in state of anything occurs?
 ( I read the document at http://libvirt.org/formatnetwork.html  which the man page referred me to but it had nothing to say on this.   I did not try to read the code).
