NAME¶

vdeslirp_init, vdeslirp_setvprefix, vdeslirp_setvprefix6 - simple API for slirp: configuration helpers

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <libvdeslirp.h>

#define VDE_INIT_DEFAULT 1

void vdeslirp_init(SlirpConfig *cfg, int flags);

void vdeslirp_setvprefix(SlirpConfig *cfg, int prefix);

void vdeslirp_setvprefix6(SlirpConfig *cfg, int prefix6);

These functions are provided by libvdeslirp. Link with -lvdeslirp.

DESCRIPTION¶

These functions are configuration helpers for libvdeslirp(3). The fields of the SlirpConfig has been described in the libvdeslirp(3) manpage.

vdeslirp_init clears the SlirpConfig configuration structure cfg and sets the version number. If flags is set to VDE_INIT_DEFAULT then it sets default values to all the fields of cfg. These default values are suitable for most applications.

The functions vdeslirp_setvprefix and vdeslirp_setvprefix6 define the netmasks and prefixes for IPv4 and IPv6. These function are usually called after the redefinition of vhost or vhost6. vdeslirp_setvprefix redefines the network prefix of vnetwork, vdhcp_start and vnameserver while vdeslirp_setvprefix6 redefines the network prefix for vprefix_addr6 and vnameserver6.
