-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2025-4ef71b2b4c 2025-12-31 01:09:31.157722+00:00 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : passt Product : Fedora 42 Version : 0^20251223.g2ba9fd5 Release : 1.fc42 URL : https://passt.top/ Summary : User-mode networking daemons for virtual machines and namespaces Description : passt implements a translation layer between a Layer-2 network interface and native Layer-4 sockets (TCP, UDP, ICMP/ICMPv6 echo) on a host. It doesn't require any capabilities or privileges, and it can be used as a simple replacement for Slirp.
pasta (same binary as passt, different command) offers equivalent functionality, for network namespaces: traffic is forwarded using a tap interface inside the namespace, without the need to create further interfaces on the host, hence not requiring any capabilities or privileges.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
Keep pasta running if IPv6 support is disabled in kernel, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2424192 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog:
