The answer is that you need to do EXACTLY the same thing as you would do
when you have a set of ten machines networked together, and you have a
Linux server thatyou want to use as a monitoring station. The only
difference is that physically, you only have ONE machine and no cables
connecting the machines. From a software standpoint tho', there's no
difference. 

Whether you use SNMP or some other monitoring technology depends mostly
on:
1. What you want to achieve.
2. What's avaialble for your guest OS.
