.. include:: /include.rst |network| Network ================= The **Network** page contains settings related to the emulated machine's network connectivity. Network type ------------ Network emulation mode to use. See :doc:`../hardware/network` for more information on these. * **None:** disable networking. * **PCap:** connects directly to a host network adapter. Similar to the **Bridge** mode on other emulators and virtualizers. * **SLiRP:** creates a private network with a virtual router. Similar to the **NAT** mode on other emulators and virtualizers. PCap device ----------- Host network adapter to use for PCap mode. If no adapters appear in this list, make sure PCap is :ref:`enabled on your host and a supported network connection is present `. Network adapter --------------- Network card to emulate. Only cards supported by the machine's expansion buses will be listed. The *Configure* button opens a new window with settings specific to the selected network card, such as the I/O port and IRQ for ISA cards. The **[LPT] Parallel Port Internet Protocol** network adapter requires a **PLIP Network** device to be attached to a :ref:`parallel port `.
