I'm mostly sure that if you want to run dhcpd, you just need to turn off
the "default" network and use bridged networking instead.

(Hasn't really changed)
Under virt-manager, connect to the local host, then right-click on the
local host and open "Details." Switch to the Virtual Networks tab, and
uncheck the Autostart: On Boot option.
Guests will get dhcp from the bridged network, and will be on the same
broadcast domain as the KVM host.
