Configure Network bridge and KVM in ubuntu
Step:1 Verify Whether your system support hardware virtualization
egrep -c '(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo

If the output is greater than 0 then it means your system supports Virtualization
else reboot your system, then go to BIOS settings and enable VT technology.
Now Install “kvm-ok” utility using below command, it is used to determine
if your server is capable of running hardware accelerated KVM virtual machines
sudo apt install cpu-checker
sudo kvm-ok
INFO: /dev/kvm exists
KVM acceleration can be used
Step:2 Install KVM and its required packages
sudo apt update
apt install qemu qemu-kvm libvirt-bin bridge-utils virt-manager
Step:3 Start & enable libvirtd service
service libvirtd start
update-rc.d libvirtd enable
service libvirtd status
Step:4 Configure Network Bridge for KVM virtual Machines
vi /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml

ethernets:
ens33:
dhcp4: no
dhcp6: no
bridges:
