Ok, I set up 2 new VMs (sys-net and sys-firewall) in case something went
wrong during the setup, but the result was the same as before.
Not sure how to enable the clocksync service in sys-net (fedora-26
template) but the date/time settings are correct, so I assume it already is
syncing correctly.

But I did some more research and this is what I found out so far is:

sys-net itself has a working internet connection (I can do "ping
www.google.com" in a terminal and everything is fine).
Also other VMs that use sys-net directly as netVM can access the internet
(i.e. ping a server etc.).
The only exception is sys-firewall, in which a ping just fails due to no
connection.

When sys-firewall starts up, a new vif is created inside sys-net (which was
expected), but there is no route created.
When I tried to create a new route it said "Network is down". So it did
"ifconfig vif8.0 up" and afterwards added a new route with:
"sudo ip route add 10.137.0.15 dev vif8.0 metric 32752"

"route -v" displays:
10.137.0.15   0.0.0.0   255.255.255.255   UH   32752   0   0   vif8.0

So at this point the ifconfig and route entries look exactly like on my
other machine which is working fine out of the box.
Unfortunately sys-firewall still does not have a working internet
connection ("ping www.google.com" results in "Name or service not known"
due to no DNS connectivity).

So it seems like as soon as I create a new VM with "provides network"
checked, it can not use the network connection of sys-net. Any other VM
that does not provide network ifself can use sys-net directly and works
fine.
I think there is a problem with some kind of proxy setup in sys-firewall or
something.
Is there some documentation which steps are done regarding networking
during the startup of sys-firewall, so I can try to do those steps manually
one by one to see where the problem appears?
