Creating a tap device.
My previous message was meant for another list. Apology for the
disturbance.
I've set aside the instructions for qemu. Trying to understand how a
tap device is created. "man ip" has minimal explanation of "ip tuntap".
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15626088/tap-interfaces-and-dev-net-tun-device-using-ip-tuntap-command
prompts this.
peter@joule:/home/peter$ sudo ip tuntap add mode tap tap0
[sudo] password for peter:
open: No such file or directory
peter@joule:/home/peter$ ls -ld /dev/tu*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Mar 13 07:34 /dev/tun -> /dev/net/tun
Can anyone succeed to create a tap device using ip in Debian 10?
Thx, ... P.
