This page describes how to set up a virtual network between two QEMUs that
are connected together via UART and are running IEEE 802.15.4 link layer
between them. Note that this only works in Linux host.
Basic Setup
***********
For the steps below, you will need two terminal windows:
* Terminal #1 is terminal window with ``echo-server`` Zephyr sample application.
* Terminal #2 is terminal window with ``echo-client`` Zephyr sample application.
If you want to capture the transferred network data, you must compile the
``monitor_15_4`` program in ``net-tools`` directory.
Open a terminal window and type:
.. code-block:: console
cd $ZEPHYR_BASE/../net-tools
make monitor_15_4
Step 1 - Compile and start echo-server
======================================
In terminal #1, type:
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/net/sockets/echo_server
:host-os: unix
:board: qemu_x86
:build-dir: server
:gen-args: -DEXTRA_CONF_FILE=overlay-qemu_802154.conf
:goals: server
:compact:
If you want to capture the network traffic between the two QEMUs, type:
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/net/sockets/echo_server
:host-os: unix
:board: qemu_x86
:build-dir: server
:gen-args: -G'Unix Makefiles' -DEXTRA_CONF_FILE=overlay-qemu_802154.conf -DPCAP=capture.pcap
:goals: server
:compact:
Note that the ``make`` must be used for ``server`` target if packet capture
option is set in command line. The ``build/server/capture.pcap`` file will contain the
transferred data.
Step 2 - Compile and start echo-client
======================================
In terminal #2, type:
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/net/sockets/echo_client
:host-os: unix
:board: qemu_x86
:build-dir: client
:gen-args: -DEXTRA_CONF_FILE=overlay-qemu_802154.conf
:goals: client
:compact:
You should see data passed between the two QEMUs.
Exit QEMU by pressing :kbd:`CTRL+A` :kbd:`x`.
