I have a 32bit(PAE) CentOS5 machine running (stock CentOS) Xen. I've been using the kernel dummy ethernet driver to create interfaces on the host machine so that I can create internal networks for the guests and host to communicate with each other. The only issue I have with this is that the interface is not >=100MB, but is 10MB. Is there a way I can increase the speed of these interfaces (I've tried looking at the kernel docs and google'ing) or another dummy style interface driver I can use to create these? Thanks! --Caitlyn
No takers on this issue? --Caitlyn

Is it showing up in an NMS via SNMP and miscalculating thresholds, or is it just cosmetic and a non-issue?> For completeness, and I'd also like to bump it up to 1000Mb/s or > higher > if I can, how would I go about finding out it's speed and changing > it?You don't. It's not a real interface. -- Christopher G. Stach II
