Re: [Qemu-discuss] How to use tap for qemu guest network?

[Shiyao Ma]

Hi Aleksei,

I did the following, 

sudo ip link add dev bridge0 type bridge

sudo ip link set bridge0 up

# after the above commands, when doing a `ip link show', the bridge0 is in state UNKNOWN.

I then run, 

sudo kvm -m 256 eva.qcow2 -curses -vga virtio -device virtio-net,netdev=internet -netdev bridge,br=bridge0,id=internet,helper=/usr/lib/qemu/qemu-bridge-helper

After login into the sytem, I run:

ip link show

I got:

                                address@hidden:/home/introom# ip addr

                                                                       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

The above is all I got.

What additional step should I do?

For example, to achieve the goal as,  ping between the guest and the host.

Thanks.

This works for me (you have to set up the bridge "bridge0" on the host side):

-device virtio-net,netdev=internet \
-netdev bridge,br=bridge0,id=internet,helper=/usr/lib/qemu/qemu-bridge-helper

Hi,

I'd like to use a tap for the network between the host and the guest.

There are some materials on the internet, but none working for me.

Anybody successful setting up the tap based network?

What commands/setup do you use?

Thanks.
