libvdeplug_ptp - vdeplug module for point to point connections
<A NAME="lbAC">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2>

libvdeplug_ptp.so
<A NAME="lbAD">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>

This module interconnects two vde supporting tools by a point to point
communication line.
This module of libvdeplug4 can be used in any program supporting vde like
<B>vde_plug</B>, <B>kvm</B>, <B>qemu</B>, <B>user-mode-linux</B> and <B>virtualbox</B>.
<P>
The vde_plug_url syntax of this module is the following:
<DL COMPACT><DT><DD>
<BR>

<B>ptp://</B><I>path_of_the_socket</I>
</DL>

<P>
<A NAME="lbAE">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>EXAMPLES</H2>

<B><A HREF="ptp:///tmp/sock">ptp:///tmp/sock</A></B>

<BR>

The same vde_plug_url can be used at both ends of the connection.
The first program creates the socket <B>/tmp/sock</B>. The second program connects to
<B>/tmp/sock</B>, when it discovers that the socket already exists.
