[Fedora-xen] Multiple virtual to physical nic setup docs
All, I''m looking for documentation that can tell me how I can do the following with xen. basically I have a dual homed system, and want all virtual eth0 nics to utilize the real physical eth0 nic, and would like all virtual eth1 nics to use the real physical eth1 nic. as of now I have this: in my /etc/xen/host1 vif = [ ''mac=0a:00:00:00:00:01'', ''mac=0b:00:00:00:00:01''] in my /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp (network-script ''network-bridge bridge=br0 netdev=eth0'') (network-script ''network-bridge bridge=br1 netdev=eth1'') on the virtual host i ssh in through the virtual eth0 interface then when i issue a tcpdump on the virtual eth1 i see real traffic for the real physical eth1, however when assigning an address on the virtual eth1, i can''t ping it from outside the virtual environment. Any direction to specific setup docs would be greatly appreciated.

I too would like to see documentation on how to do it with the default configuration. But in the mean time, you could just replace the default xen networking scripts with your own. That''s why I did, and I have no complaints yet.
