qemu, vde_switch and tun0

[Maarten Sanders]

Hi,

I posted a similar message yesterday to fbsd-questions but I think this
list is more likely to provide me with an answer.

I have qemu working, I have vde_switch working an I manage to setup a
network between two qemu sessions. Now I am trying to get qemu working
attached to a tun device:

rten# vde_switch -tap tun0 -daemon ; ifconfig tun0 192.168.1.254 ; chmod
777 /tmp/vde.ctl
ifconfig: interface tun0 does not exist

My kernel has, as far as I can see, all the options required:
=====
# Pseudo devices.
device          loop            # Network loopback
device          mem             # Memory and kernel memory devices
device          io              # I/O device
device          random          # Entropy device
device          ether           # Ethernet support
#device         sl              # Kernel SLIP
#device         ppp             # Kernel PPP
device          tun             # Packet tunnel.
device          pty             # Pseudo-ttys (telnet etc)
device          md              # Memory "disks"
device          gif             # IPv6 and IPv4 tunneling
device          faith           # IPv6-to-IPv4 relaying (translation)

# The `bpf' device enables the Berkeley Packet Filter.
# Be aware of the administrative consequences of enabling this!
device          bpf             # Berkeley packet filter
======




Does anyone know what I need to do to get a tun device working?

Thanks,

Maarten
