Hm, creating a tun device works for me. $ cat /etc/hostname.tun0 inet 192.168.155.145 255.255.255.240 255.255.255.159 link0 description "QEMU interface" The guest is started with the following options: qemu -net nic -net tap,ifname=/dev/tun0,script=/usr/bin/true [...] Oh, sweet! I was trying creating tun devics and then attaching to them using the qemu-ifup script, which I can see you're not using. I'll try this, thank you! :) -- viq

QEMU networking - with host ONLY
I am playing a bit with QEMU, and tried to set up network with it. The standard aproach is to create a bridge with one of the host's interfaces, and I did that, having the guest and host on the same address range, and they are able to communicate. But now the question I have is this: I want the guest to be able to communicate ONLY with the host, I don't want any of the traffic from it to be able to pass to the outside world. To achieve that I thought the easiest way would be to bridge the connection to one of the 'virtual' interfaces - say, lo0 or a specially created for that occasion tun or gif. But, I didn't have much luck with that... So, does anyone have an idea how to achieve that - the traffic from the guest system not being able to even accidentaly leak out of the host system? -- viq
