It depends how you set up your network on the qemu command line. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
If you use "qemu -netdev tap,id=hn0,script=no,downscript=no ...", you need |
| 27 |
to set up a tap. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
If you use "qemu -netdev tap,id=hn0 ...", you don't need to set up a tap if |
| 30 |
you have a "/etc/qemu-ifup" script.. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
But you do need to set a bridge on both cases. |
