EMU1="ip netns exec emu1"
EMU2="ip netns exec emu2"

ip netns add emu1
ip netns add emu2

ip link add emu1-veth1 type veth peer name emu2-veth1
ip link set emu1-veth1 netns emu1
ip link set emu2-veth1 netns emu2

$EMU1 ip link set emu1-veth1 name veth1
$EMU2 ip link set emu2-veth1 name veth1

$EMU1 ip link set veth1 up
