OK! Got a the Mirage website running in Qemu on OSX.

I needed to set up a alias: ifconfig tap0 10.0.0.1 alias

Now for the Pi.

Thanks again Dan.

I'm getting a little closer on OSX:

I now see "listening on http://localhost" but still not able to get see the unikernel serving.

I've also got going on the Raspberry Pi:

As you can see I've got the Unikernel running but haven't started network setup, yet.

It does look like that is the case to me too.

There's a lot of different ways to configure networking, which is what makes it so confusing. I can tell you how I'm doing it in the containers if that helps. Are you trying to set up networking on your rPi3 or OSX? I do have access to OSX, so I can try things out there in the next couple of days, but I'm not as familiar with the OSX networking vs. Linux.

The Solo5/Mirage unikernel's network stack is configured to either use DHCP or a static IP address. The example is using the default MirageOS static IP address, which is hardcoded somewhere to 10.0.0.2. So that's the address that the unikernel will think it is.

I normally set up a local bridge (virbr0) where I tell QEMU to put the tap device and I also add a virtual NIC pair with 10.0.0.1, so that I can access the unikernel from the host directly (e.g., ping 10.0.0.2, wget 10.0.0.2, etc.)

The script that QEMU uses to know that it should add to virbr0 is here:

https://github.com/djwillia/solo5/blob/mirage/kvm-br.bash

The script that I use to configure the host to have its virtual NIC pair is here:

https://github.com/djwillia/solo5/blob/mirage/config_net.bash

The `iptables` commands at the bottom of that script are how I normally expose a port to the outside world (e.g., port 80). After that, I can access the web server on the host's IP address.
