SYNOPSIS
libvdeplug_hub.so
DESCRIPTION
This is a libvdeplug multiplex module implementing a virtual networking
hub.
This module of libvdeplug4 can be used in any program supporting vde
like vde_plug, kvm, qemu, user-mode-linux and virtualbox.
The vde_plug_url syntax of this module is the following:
hub://[path]
hub://[path][[OPTION][/OPTION][/OPTION]...]
If path is omitted the path of the hub is /tmp/vdenode_$USERNAME (e.g.
/tmp/vdenode_john if the username is john).
OPTIONS
mode=MODE
define the permissions for the hub (see chmod). MODE is an octal
number. The standard permission mask is: 0600 (only processes
owning to the same user can join the network).
dirmode=DIRMODE
define the permissions for the hub control directory(see chmod).
MODE is an octal number. If omitted, is computed from mode.
grp=GROUP
define the group ownership of the hub.
EXAMPLES
hub:///tmp/hub
Other virtual machines, namespaces or vde_plug can join this hub using
vde:///tmp/hub or simply /tmp/hub
hub:///tmp/hub[mode=0666]
It is the same hub, but everybody is allowed to connect their pro-
cesses.
