How do I create a vnic that represents the factory assigned MAC address of my physical nic? The bge device in my system (x2100) appears to support 4 MAC addresses. The driver reserves the first as the ''primary/default'' address and allows manipulation of the other three via the MAC_CAPAB_MULTIADDRESS interface. I''d like to use vnics on this system, as I have Xen guest

Hi, I''m afraid I have some problems understanding how crossbow is supposed to work ;) On my machine (OpenSolaris, snv_111) I''m running VirtualBox with couple of linux / XP installation and additionally a zone with exclusive IP. My network configuration looks like this: [6]elsinore:~>dladm show-link LINK CLASS MTU STATE OVER bge0 phys 1500 up

1 simple question about network statistics for vnics: We noticed that the statistics for vnics (used by Virtualbox guests) are not there. When the nics are plumped in the host OS, we do see them showing up, but all all records are 0. Can someone tell me how to get the correct network info via snmp on the Vbox Host?? Thanks in advance. IF-MIB::ifDescr.1 = STRING: lo0 IF-MIB::ifDescr.2 = STRING:

On OpenSolaris 2009.06 I created a flow, half a dozen VNICs, and I set some properties, and everything was working, then I rebooted my system and everything disappeared from show-vnic, show-flow, and show-prop. When I tried to re-create the objects, dladm said they already existed. While I could not see the objects, I could delete them. Example: # dladm show-vnic # dladm create-vnic -l bge0

Hi, Can you tell why my vnic built on top of an aggregation of 2 NICs of 1 Gbit/s doesn''t report a speed of 2 GBit/s ? [root at nazgul /]# dladm show-dev bge0 link: up speed: 1000Mb duplex: full bge1 link: down speed: 0Mb duplex: unknown bge2 link: down speed: 0Mb duplex: unknown bge3 link: down speed: 0Mb

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 zonepath=/zones/zone1 zonecfg:zone1> add net

I have installed on a VirtualBox vm the crossbow ISO Now I''m trying to create the network map described in the "getting started" pdf I have this situation: On global zone, I have the real NIC: e1000g0 with ip 10.0.2.15 (VirtualBox NAT this IP, I can get web access with it) I have created an etherstub (etherstub n?2) with 2 vnics (vnic5 and vnic6), I''ve plumbed

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?

I opened a bug report earlier today but it doesn''t seem to have been added to the bugs database. I''m posting here in case one of the Crossbow developers might see it and confirm this behavior. Description Duplicate packets are generated whenever an aggregate is introduced into the network configuration. We''ve ruled out switch ports and physical bge interfaces as

Following is a short description on assigning priorities to a link (via dladm). Flows will have a similar mechanism (via flowadm). thanks, -venu ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The components associated with a link or flow, such as Soft Ring Sets, Soft Rings and squeues, have kernel threads processing inbound/outbound packets.

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

Howdy, I just installed the crossbow snapshot from opensolaris.org, and bumped into an issue when attempting to create a virtual nic: $ dladm create-vnic -i 192.168.1.101 -d ni0 2 dladm: VNIC creation failed: No such file or directory (unknown diagnostic) When I truss the process, it looks like it''s failing when attempting to open the vnic pseudo-device: 100878/1:

Hi Folks, I have a snv_105 sxce host that I just can''t get to work as expected with crossbow + zones. My test host persephone, is a virtual machine running under VMware ESXi 3.5, with 2 virtual network cards (e1000), all on the same flat network/subnet. It started life just 2 days ago with a clean install of snv_95, and I LUed to 105 yesterday. To rule out any sharing issue, the first

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

Hi the Crossbow team, I am testing my UV fastpath bits and I found several issues that need your suggestion: 1. dladm show-usage won''t work if UV fastpath is enabled. Since the link usage data are collected based on the statistics of the mac_client_impl_t, and UV fastpath skips the GLDv3 processing, that won''t be available. I don''t see a solution for this except

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

Actually, it is not a list.. but just something that''ll be very useful to me in my business. If crossbow/virtual interfaces can provide a flow that can capture bandwidth usage over a period of time (including 95 percentile), that''ll be great! Is this possible? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

Folks, I just posted an updated Crossbow virtualization architecture document. The new revision is available at: http://opensolaris.org/os/project/crossbow/Docs/crossbow-virt.pdf The main changes are the addition of support for multiple MAC addresses per client, and an explicit separation between consolidation private and project private MAC API entry points. See in particular the

Hi. After running with the crossbow bits for a while, I discovered that the network management port on my T1000 wasn''t working properly (no link light). When logging in on the serial management port and running "resetsc", I got this: --->8--- ALOM POST 1.0 Dual Port Memory Test, PASSED. TTY External - Internal Loopback Test TTY External - Internal Loopback Test, PASSED.
