Hi all, I try to connect my qemu sessions to the "normal" local network, I would like to do it bridged, which means I don't want to port/ip forwards or anything like this.
I set up VDEv2.0 and launched vde_switch, tap0 gets created. As long as I work like this and start qemu with vdeqemu everything works fine, I can use the whole setup as a virtual switch and ping the tun0 IP and the VMs. Now I thought I will create a bridge interface, let's call it br0. I add eth0 to the bridge with "brctl addif eth0", and I do the same for tap0. Problem is that it doesn't seem to work, brctl show still shows both interaces but I can't do anything with tap0 now anymore, neither tcpdump from the host nor pinging or anything from the guest. I checked all docs I found for VDE but I don't get what I am doing wrong. Is this possible after all with VDE? If not, what other options do I have to use qemu sessions in a transparent way from the network POV? thanks Adrian _______________________________________________ Qemu-devel mailing list Qemu-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
