Hi Laine,
thanks for the answer.

There is no provision for that. If you want additional hosts to be
known by the libvcirt instance of dnsmasq, you must enter them into
the xml.
I can set the addn-hosts in the .conf file in
/var/lib/libvirt/dnsmasq/<nameofthenetwork>.conf.
I was just not sure if this gets overwritten, each time I change a
setting in the network's xml (virsh net-edit ...).
If we allowed pointing to an existing addn-hosts file written by
the user, we would be adding the format of dnsmasq's addn-hosts
file to libvirt's official API, which we don't want to do - we want
to keep libvirt's API as implementation-agnostic as possible (in
case someone implements a libvirt network driver that uses
something other than dnsmasq for DNS, for example).
Sounds reasonable.
Regards,
Johannes
