and ephemeral qube state is desirable.

## netvm
|
||||
|
||||
The property of a [qube](#qube) that specifies from which qube, if any, it
|
||||
receives network access. Despite the name, `netvm` is a *property* of a qube,
|
||||
not a type of VM. For example, it is common for the `netvm` of an [app
|
||||
qube](#app-qube) to be the [service qube](#service-qube) `sys-firewall`, which
|
||||
in turn uses `sys-net` as its `netvm`.
|
||||
|
||||
* If a qube does not have a `netvm` (i.e., its `netvm` is set to `None`), then
|
||||
that qube is offline. It is disconnected from all networking.
|
||||
|
||||
* The name derives from "Networking Virtual Machine." Before Qubes 4.0, there
|
||||
was a type of [service qube](#service-qube) called a "NetVM." The name of the
|
||||
`netvm` property is a holdover from that era.
