virt-manager NAT Port Forwarding? [CLOSED]

Hello,

I have been using virt-manager with QEMU/KVM for a bit of time now to virtual machine. I absolutely love the performance increases when compared to competition such as virtualbox.

I have been wanting to set up a server (a Minecraft server go figure haha) and so I need to port forward in order to do so. I have already correctly configured the port forwarding correctly with my router and host machine, but I cannot find any way to do so with virt-manager between the guest and host machine.

I have reviewed quite a few forums to get this question resolved, which I will link below, but nothing seemed to work. I was hoping that someone who has done this before, or is much smarter than me with this can help me answer this, as I feel there really isn't a concrete answer out there.

I am using the GUI elements of virt-manager, but am happy and more than willing to configure this in terminal if needs be.

Attached are the two posts that seemed relevant enough that I tried. Many thanks for the help on this one!
