Add a bridge interface to Ubuntu desktop using nmcli

Had to do this for some advanced networking with KVM, and couldn't figure out how to do it using the Nework Manager gui. Did find an article later that showed how to do it with nmtui, but it's so much easier to record what you did when using the cli.

Note: I now set net.ifnames=0 in grub for all my machines, to ensure my device names are "predictable" (so the first ethernet device will be "eth0" and not "ens1", "eno1 or anything else).

Once you have the host bridge set up, proceed as follows:

  1. Create a bridge network device inside KVM. Edit and save the below text as file host-bridge.xml:
