Re: [Qemu-devel] tun/tap networking: patch for existing tun

[Christian MICHON]

to do so, does that mean we would need to launch a 1st qemu
instance which would contain the dhcp server, and next qemu
instances would connect to it ?

if so, 'qemu -server' and 'qemu -client -connect_to server' could
be useful...
