Setting up networking on Qemu

Hi,

Can anybody tell me what network controller Qemu emulates?

The network device PCI ID is 0x8029 which according to pcidatabase.com translates to "PCI Full-Duplex Ethernet Controller with PnP Function from Realtek". Specifically, what is the make/model of this network device?

thanks

If you do not specify any sort of "-net nic,model=<something>" parameter, it'll emulate an RTL8139.

You can also specify "pcnet", "e1000", or "ne2k_pci" (ne2k_isa if you're nostalgic) as well.
