Unfortunately, this is not yet available "out of the box". You need to
create the natted network in libvirt, and then connect your vNic to it
via a vdsm hook.

This mailing list has seen various suggestions on this subject (such as
[1]). While searching for them, I found a recent blog using the extent
hook for that[2] (ymmv).
