Xen devel - Oct 2005 - [PATCH] network-bridge script support for multiple external interfaces

The attached patch allows the network-bridge script to be used to 
generate multiple bridges corresponding to different physical 
interfaces. It adds a new parameter, "virtnum", used to refer both to 
the loopback interface to be used and to set defaults regarding the 
physical interface and bridge name.

Thus, if one wishes to start xen-br0 on eth0 and xen-br1 on eth1, one 
need only call:

network-bridge start ## virtnum is 0 by default
network-bridge start virtnum=1

...well, that and set loopback.nloopbacks=2 in the Dom0 kernel parameters.

The antispoof default is not consistent with the comment.

Quite so. (That''s original behavior, though, and so any fix for it 
should be checked in as a separate changeset -- from my 
revision-control-nazi days I still have a strong preference for keeping 
different fixes in different changesets so that they can be merged, 
accepted or rejected, and otherwise handled individually).
