$ virsh connect
try on your machine

The "virsh connect" command is used in the virtualization environment to establish a connection with the Hypervisor.

Hypervisor is a software or firmware that allows multiple operating systems to share a single hardware host. It enables the creation, management, and monitoring of virtual machines (VMs).

When you run the "virsh connect" command, it initiates a connection between your local system and the hypervisor. This connection allows you to control and manage the virtualization environment. Once connected, you can perform various actions like creating, starting, stopping, and monitoring virtual machines.

The "virsh connect" command typically requires administrative privileges and is commonly used in command-line interfaces or scripts to automate virtualization tasks.
