+The QEMU guest agent is a daemon that runs on the virtual machine. The agent 
+passes network information on the virtual machine, notably the IP address of 
+additional networks, to the host.

+include::modules/cnv-installing-qemu-guest-agent-on-linux-vm.adoc[leveloffset=+1]
+
+You can also install and start the QEMU guest agent using the 
+*cloud-init*:*Use custom script* field of the wizard when creating either 
+virtual machines or virtual machines templates in the web console.
+
+For Windows virtual machines, the QEMU guest agent is included in the 
+VirtIO drivers, which can be installed on 
+xref:../../cnv/cnv_users_guide/cnv-installing-virtio-drivers-on-existing-windows-vm.adoc#cnv-installing-virtio-drivers-on-existing-windows-vm[an existing Windows virtual machine] or
