Sergey Matveychuk 032fc7a937 VDE is a user-mode ethernet simulation. It's quite useful for
hooking together multiple qemu instances into a single virtual
network without needing root access.  It can also be used for
tunneling or other network simulation tasks.

Virtual Distributed Ethernet is a user-mode virtual network (layer
2) infrastructure. It can be used for network simulations, joining
multiple qemu instances together in a shared virtual network, or
tunneling over the Internet. Physical hosts can be joined to the
virtual network by means of the tap(4) driver.
