I am trying to debug my own DHCP server (for PXE), and I want QEMU to net boot from it. For that, it needs to send DHCPDISCOVER packet to 255.255.255.255 that should reach host network where DHCP server is listening (it listens on 0.0.0.0, and get back the reply.

Right now host DHCP server doesn't get any packets from QEMU. QEMU is started with standard user mode network (SLIRP).

qemu-system-x86_64

I read that SLIRP network is NAT that allows port forwarding. But I don't see how to forward DNS packets to host and back there. Is that at all possible to do with SLIRP?

I tried to add markdown rendering by putting types { text/markdown md; } into server section, but then index.html stopped to be rendered all of a sudden. I can explain this only if types overrides the whole set of mime types for this section.

So, is there a way to just add mime-type for Markdown without touching anything else?
