CAP_NET_RAW is what governs raw sockets. If you give a guest that, it will
be able to able sniff/generate traffic as it sees fit.

CAP_NET_ADMIN "only" lets the guest do network setup, such as configuring
interfaces, routes, etc. See /usr/include/linux/capability.h or
http://linux-vserver.org/Capabilities_and_Flags for descriptions of the
capabilities.
