Are the domUs still accessible from outside world? You mentioned
earlier that you can ssh to domU, but domU can't access anywhere. If
that's the case I suggest you try using bridge + NAT. You should have
a bridge called virbr0 by default on RHEL/Centos (created by libvirt),
with NAT already setup (check with "iptables -nL -t nat"). It should
show something like this

# iptables -nL -t nat
Chain PREROUTING (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
MASQUERADE  all  --  192.168.122.0/24    !192.168.122.0/24

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination



After that, create a domU that uses virbr0 bridge (use DHCP in domU).
Then check whether you can access outside world from domU. If you can,
then what I said earlier is probably true : the source of problem
might be elsewhere and not in your bridge setup.
It's also possible that your ISP/uplink provider is blocking packets
from your domU IP address.
