This User-Mode Linux network transport allows one or more running
|
||||
UMLs on a single host to communicate with each other and also
|
||||
with the rest of the world using Virtual Distributed Ethernet,
|
||||
an improved fork of uml_switch.
|
||||
|
||||
You must have libvdeplug installed in order to build the vde
|
||||
transport into UML.
|
||||
|
||||
To use this form of networking, you will need to run vde_switch
|
||||
on the host.
|
||||
|
||||
For more information, see <http://wiki.virtualsquare.org/>
|
||||
That site has a good overview of what VDE is and also examples
|
||||
of the UML command line to use to enable VDE networking.

If you need UML networking with VDE,
|

say Y.
