This directory contains the implementation of vnets:
|
|
virtual private networks for virtual machines.
|
|
|
|
See 00INSTALL for build instructions, doc/ for more information
|
|
and examples/ for example configurations.
|
|
|
|
The vnet implementation can be run using a kernel module
|
|
or a user-space daemon. The kernel module is in vnet-module/ and the
|
|
user-space daemon (varpd) is in vnetd/. The user-space daemon
|
|
needs the tun/tap kernel module. Vnets use multicast to find
|
|
virtual interfaces and support broadcast. Either implementation can
|
|
tunnel multicast packets to other implementations if wide-area
|
|
multicast routing is not available.
