I understand that you meant to say that this is already working for you, right? That you set it to allow without-password from some addresses and that that was enough.

Do you mean here to ask if 10.10.10.10/24 is enough? The engine VM's IP address should be enough. What this address is, after deploy finishes, is of course up to you. During deploy it's by default in libvirt's default network, 192.168.222.0/24, but can be different if that's already in use by something else (e.g. a physical NIC). BTW, I didn't test this myself. I do see in the code that it's supposed to work. If you find a bug, please report one. Thanks.
