+An example VM that is PXE booted from the `br1` device (which must already be configured in the host machine), and if that fails, is booted from the disk:
+
+```ruby
+Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
+  config.vm.define :pxeclient do |pxeclient|
+    pxeclient.vm.network :public_network,
+      dev: 'br1',

+    pxeclient.vm.provider :libvirt do |domain|
+      boot_network = {'dev' => 'br1'}
+      domain.storage :file, :size => '100G'
+      domain.boot boot_network
+      domain.boot 'hd'
+    end
+  end
+end
