Using Emulator in a Network

The Tizen Emulator is based on the QEMU virtual machine, and uses QEMU user networking (SLIRP), which is the default networking backend and generally the easiest to use. The Emulator supports TCP and UDP, and "ping" within a guest (QEMU is patched for ping to work; however, raw socket is not supported). For more information, see QEMU Networking documentation.
