A letter to community: UDP Tunnel networking ---------------------
UDP tunnel is a great mechanism to interconnect virtual machines running on different hosts. It is intended for advanced users. Technically this is done by encapsulating guest's ethernet frames into host's UDP/IP packets, and sending them to the destination. This tunnel is a sort of VPN, except that UDP tunnel is not encrypted. ---------------------------- This feature will enable GNS3 network simulator to work perfectly together with VirtualBox. GNS3 allows to build clouds and distributed network topologies in very nice graphical way, where you can actually *draw* network topology, and interconnect VMs together, even if they run on different physical hosts. GNS3 is very user friendly. So you all are encouraged to test UDP tunnels, and report your findings.
