Description

Virtual Distributed Ethernet is a user-mode virtual network (layer 2) infrastructure. It can be used for network simulations, joining multiple qemu instances together in a shared virtual network, or tunneling over the Internet. Physical hosts can be joined to the virtual network by means of the tap(4) driver.
