Virtual Distributed Ethernet


Productivity/Networking/Other

VDE is a virtual network that can be spawned over a set of physical computer over the Internet

VDE connects together: (1) real GNU-linux boxes (tuntap) (2) virtual machines: UML-User Mode Linux, qemu, bochs, MPS.

VDE can be used: (i) to create a general purpose tunnel (every protocol that runs on a Ethernet can be put into the tunnel) (ii) to connect a set of virtual machine to the Internet with no need of free access of tuntap (iii) to support mobility: a VDE can stay interconnected despite of the change of virtual cables, i.e. the change of IP addresses and interface in the real world
