A bit of googling suggests that '-net udp' has never been supported
in mainline QEMU -- it seems to be a local patch provided by the GNS3
folks. I suggest asking in whatever support forum they provide.

Re: [Qemu-discuss] How to Use QEMU

[Jakob Bohm]

You downloaded the source code of the emulator.

Windows builds are available from http://qemu.weilnetz.de/ and 
http://www.omledom.com/ (Those are different builds by different people).


Documentation is available at http://wiki.qemu.org/Manual

Good day,

Hi I was browsing the net  for OS emulators and I found you website.

I plan to install QEMU in my Windows PC to emulate SPARC hardware 
then I will install on the emulated SPARC hardware Solaris 11.2.


But I don't know how to use QEMU. I downloaded this file 
/qemu-2.4.0.1.tar.bz2/ but I don't know what to do with it. I can't 
find an .exe file to install. Sorry but I'm a total noob at this. Hope 
someone can give me a walkthrough on how to use it


Looking forward to your urgent reply.

Paolo Santiago



Enjoy

Jakob
