Information for package vde2-slirp:
-----------------------------------
Repository : openSUSE-Tumbleweed-Oss

Version : 2.3.2+svn587-4.1
Arch : x86_64
Vendor : openSUSE
Installed Size : 95.1 KiB

Source package : vde2-2.3.2+svn587-4.1.src
Upstream URL : http://vde.sourceforge.net/
Summary : VDE ecryption module
Description :
slirpvde is a slirp interface for a VDE network.
Slirpvde connects all the units (virtual or real machines) to the network
of the host where slirpvde runs as it were a NAT/Masquerading router.
The default route is the node 2 (10.0.2.2 in the default network configuration)
and DNS is re-mapped in node 3 (10.0.2.3).
Slirpvde runs using standard user privileges (no need for root access):
all the connections are re-generated by slirpvde itself.
IPv4 only. IPv6 is still unsupported (will be supported when slirpvde
will be rewritten using the LWIPv6 network stack).
