Hi All, I have bfu''ed to net-virt_xb-21_snv_81_021308. The dladm command on my machine does not have create-etherstub option. Please let me know what could be the issue. Thanks Khushal

got a problem with b75 that the zone with ip-exclusive just takes the identity of the global zone. For the primary nic there is no option to set its ip and hostname. When i change the host name and ip the hostname does not change and the networking goes weird for both the zone and global zone. sparc eri qfe There any bugs about or should this work fine?

Hi, I was trying to download the Crossbow ISO from : http://opensolaris.org/os/project/crossbow/snapshots/ under "Crossbow Beta iso images June 6 2008" and it failed. Does anyone know of a link which is working ? Thanks for any pointers ! Regards, Sanjeev.

...for a 10GbE nic which supports multiple hardware tx/rx rings. We can steer rx packets into rings using the "standard" NDIS6 Toeplitz hashing on TCP port numbers, IP addresses, etc. We can also steer packets based on MAC address. Would this NIC be considered to be capable of supporting crossbow? Also, can crossbow do things like steer outgoing packets to the correct ring (for serialization to prevent out-of-order packets) based on the same sort of hashing that our NIC is doing in hardware? Eg, if we''re hashing on TCP src+dst port via a toeplitz hash, will crossbow''s tx...

I have a requirement in my current project to support multiple co-located zones on the same VLAN. Our current deployment OS is Solaris 10 Update 4. I''d like to use exclusive IP zones, but I gather the only way to currently have multiple exclusive zones with interfaces on the same VLAN is through the use of VNICs. From my initial look at S10u4, it seems VNIC support been not yet been

Team, We are trying to install Crossbow on VirtualBox. Siva first tried it on Linux and reported it in Hyderabad Open Solaris User Group alias. http://opensolaris.org/os/project/hosug/ Today both of us tried it on VirtualBox running on OpenSolaris. Both attempts have the same results. a. Selecting Solaris Developer Express during boot...

Howdy, I just finished reading through the Crossbow presentation: http://blogs.sun.com/sunay/resource/crossbow.pdf And have one question. If you create a virtual NIC with dladm: $ dladm create-vnic -d bge0 -m 0:1:2:3:4:5 -b 10000 1 Can you then add vnic1 directly to the zone? e.g.: zonecfg -z zone1 zonecfg:zone1> create zonecfg:zone1> set...

Crossbow team, The following is of interest to the Crossbow project. Since a large chunk of these changes also exist in the Crossbow gate, the delivery of this wad will result in fewer lines of changes for Crossbow''s delivery. If someone on Crossbow could participate in this review, that would be...

Hi, >From what I have read, the create-vnic feature in dladm is only available within the context of crossbow...? Specifically, what I am wondering is whether it is at all possible to successfully install crossbow on top of Sun''s "Standard/sunsolve supported" Solaris 10/08 rather than OpenSolaris, per. Se.... Is this at all feasible? Many thanks in advance.. Best regards, Joe

Hi, how can ip instances be used with vlans ? Is that possible ? I don''t know how to configure this, if I only have one interface (e.g. bge0), and want to assign e.g. bge1000 to a zone. Any cookbooks available ? Thanks Detlef

In current Crossbow''s implementation, vlan tag seems to be unconditionally retained for promisc mode listener even when MAC_OPEN_FLAGS_TAG_DISABLE is not specified. I saw comments in mac_rx_deliver() saying that this is deliberately designed like this. I''m wondering why we design it like this (choos...

Hi, I''m trying to work out a solution for multiple zones with exclusive IP stacks, and existing on the same VLAN. For example, I have 3 zones on the same subnet (lets say 10.10.10.0/24), and want to put them in the same VLAN (let''s say 20). If they weren''t zones, I would plumb up e1000g20000 or equiv on each and off we go, but with zones and exclusive IP stack, I

In crossbow, each mac_srs has a kernel thread called "mac_rx_srs_poll_ring" to poll the hardware and crossbow will wakeup this thread to poll packets from the hardware automatically. Does crossbow provide any method to disable the polling mechanism, for example disabling the this kernel thread? Thank...

Hi All, >From the design documents, I see there is an option "DLADM_VNIC_OPT_NODUPCHECK" for checking if the vnic MAC is unique on the same physical NIC. I have a question here. Does crossbow check if the MAC address is unique on the same subnet? E.g, create a vnic on hostA with hostB''s MAC address. Thanks, Karol

Hi Everyone - Here is a draft of the first of two "pages" that I will submit to Wikipedia. The first page is a general network virtualization page. From this page, I will contribute a subpage on the Crossbow projects. These two articles are the first of a number of online articles on Crossbow that I''ll be creating on behalf of the Crossbow iteam. The article uses Wikipedia''s recommended, encyclopedic style. It is essentially a survey. The attached file is in GenHTML. Some of the lin...
