[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1404278] Re: tap connections not working on windows host

[timsoft]

have used wireshark on host and nothing is coming through when I try to ping 
the host from the client. (bare with me as I haven't used wireshark before).
  I'm just upgrading the client to slack64 14.1 so I can get wireshark running 
on it. (process is a little slow, especially with no functioning network on the 
client). If all goes well, I'll be able to test that by tomorrow (it took about 
5hours to install last time). I'll then post back here. 
If there are any specific tests or methods I could follow that would help 
please let me know.

Title:
  tap connections not working on windows host

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  using latest qemu 2.2.0 64bit for windows host (installed from
  qemu-w64-setup-20141210.exe obtained from http://qemu.weilnetz.de/w64/
  ),OpenVPN 2.6.3-I601 64bit tap adapter named tap01 and calling qemu
  using the following.

  qemu-system-x86_64.exe -m 512 -net nic -net tap,ifname=tap01 -hda
  "c:\\data\\images\\test.img"

  where the image contains a slackware 14.0 64bit install.
  The tap is bridged with the real network adapter and the bridge is given an 
ip of 10.1.1.41 (which works as the ip for the windows host). The tap adapter 
(in network connections) shows connected when the qemu vm is running. inside 
the vm, the network is given an ip of 10.1.1.143 (the netmask and default 
gateway are the same for the virtual and real pc).
  fault.
  The vm cannot see the rest of the local network or visa-versa. This used to 
work in early (0.9 32bit) versions of qemu.
