We also use CentOS 7 on the real machines. This makes life easier, because we only need to know CentOS config style. Of cause you could use other Linux distribution on the real host.
1.1. 1. Step: Install CentOS 7

Required packages:
yum install qemu-kvm libvirt bridge-utils
Start libvirt:
systemctl start libvirtd
systemctl enable libvirtd1.2.1. Install KVM real machine
