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

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

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

Hello, I have been using the bridging facilities provided by Linux (vanilla 2.6.7 SMP with UML skas host patch applied) to bridge a regular physical ethernet network (on interface eth0) with a virtual network (on interface tap0, cf uml_switch, http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/networking.html). A couple of virtual machines (run using user-mode linux, a tool that enables you to run linux

Hello all, Playing with Xen on GNU/Debian Lenny, I just discovered that all my virtual network cards are in promiscuous mode by default. Changing that manually does not seems to change anything (that is, everything still works great). Is there any reason to have virtual network cards in promiscuous mode ? And where can I change this default behaviour ? Thanks, JB

Can I ask you a quick question? I''ve set up bridge-networking for Xen 4.1 (xen-4.1.3-25.el5.22) and networking was being done properly for Dom0 and DomUs. However, I noticed that Dom0 receives a lot of network interrupts or network packets even when they were not actually meant for either Dom0 or DomU. Now, here are the questions: 1. Dom0 is acting in promiscuous mode, right? 2. If

Hi there -- I want to have eth1 on my system run in promiscuous mode. I modified the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 file to read as follows: DEVICE=eth1 BOOTPROTO= ... ONBOOT= TYPE=Ethernet ... I reboote the system and when I did an /sbin/ifconfig, eth1 appeared without an ip address. I did a check in the /var/log/messages file and while eth0 is in promiscuous mode, eth1 does not

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, I hope someone can help me, I cannot seem to get a system's ethernet interface to correctly work in promiscuous mode... I have a Centos 6.4 system with 2 bnx2 interfaces on it. I have set up eth1 in promiscuous mode and am sending traffic to it using the port mirroring configuration on a Nortel 3510-24T switch. The switch reports that it is sending a fair amount of traffic to the

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

How can I find out that someone is using it's network card in promiscuous mode in a subnet? Thank you!

Using OpenSolaris 2008.11 build 110. Created vnic''s and etherstub''s and they are displayed using dladm show-links but when the server is rebooted a ''dladm show-link'' is empty although the vnic and etherstub devices are still there and function properly. That is a real inconvenience, so why do the no longer show after a reboot or shutdown/start? Is there a

Guys, OK, now that we have the new core contributors squared away, we can go back to finishing the contributors list. There were some people who got added and then there is existing contributors list. I think Darren''s suggestion to wait to add new core contributors is fine (let the new constitution settle down and we can in the meanwhile have a more inclusive look at both rather than

I''m doing some testing about vlan and saw a problem. Here is my configuration: I have two X4200M2, which are connected back-to-back via e1000g1 interfaces. I created one VNIC (with same VLAN ID) on each of these two e1000g1 interface. After I configure IPs on both of these two VNICs, they''re not able to talk to each other:

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

Hi List, I''m in the process of setting up softflowd 0.9.9 on a Centos 6.4 system (compiled from source tarball). The daemon will listen to an unused interface that is receiving port mirrored traffic (a.la. Span port) I am planning on using the softflowd init script and sysconfig file provided in the tar ball. Do I need to manually put the unused interface into promiscuous mode, or

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, Is there any way to add VNIC to the domU? # virsh attach-interface mydomU network myvnic1 # libvir: XML error : missing source information for device myvnic1 It''s SXCE105. -- Regards, Piotr Jasiukajtis | estibi | SCA OS0072 http://estseg.blogspot.com

Hi Everyone, In order to prevent DomU from entering promiscuous mode, is it just a matter of adding these 2 rules when the vif is created? # Accept packets leaving the bridge going to the domU only if # the destination IP for that packet matches an authorized IPv4 # address for that domU. iptables -A FORWARD -m physdev --physdev-out vif1.0 \ --destination 216.146.46.43 -j ACCEPT
