QemuUserNet

QemuUserNet, crafted in Go, stands as a lightweight solution tailored for QEMU environments. Within its single binary reside both daemon and client functionalities, offering streamlined networking capabilities akin to 'docker network,' but fine-tuned specifically for QEMU. This application operates within user space, utilizing datagram sockets for efficient network management. Its core objective is enabling seamless communication solely between VMs within a virtual network, with no provision for internet connectivity.
