Apart from consuming the libvirt interface this snap packages a tiny vm to be run with libvirt and be able to run some checks. The vm is a solo5 unikernel which is built during snap creation.
As a prerrequisite, a tap interface must be available for the vm to be connected, the default name is tap100 and can be created with ip tuntap add tap100 mode tap ip addr add 10.0.0.1/24 dev tap100 ip link set dev tap100 up
With this in place, the vm would be accessible at 10.0.0.2
Once you execute machine-up, the vm will respond to ping requests.

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
Snapd can be installed from Manjaro’s Add/Remove Software application (Pamac), found in the launch menu. From the application, search for snapd, select the result, and click Apply.
Alternatively, snapd can be installed from the command line:
sudo pacman -S snapd
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
To install test-snapd-libvirt-consumer, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install test-snapd-libvirt-consumer --edge
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
