Specifying a name for at least one VM through JSON-RPC or using --vm-name on the CLI enables Softnet's built-in DNS server.

This allows VMs to find each other's IPs using DNS names like <name>.internal.

Queries for these internal names bypass the firewall policy, since naming a VM explicitly opts it into DNS discovery. All other DNS queries remain subject to it.
