Sorry, I fault to send email to mailing list.
However, I try to draw a scheme of my system:
------------------
| Debian server1 |
------------------ -----------------------------
| eth0 (vif1.1) | ---------> | xen-br1: virtual bridge |-----
------------------ | with physical eth0 | |
| eth1: 10.0.1.30| -----\ ----------------------------- |
------------------ nat | |
of traffic from eth0 | |
\ ----------------------------- |
----> | xen-br0: virtual bridge | |
| vif1.2 + vif0.0 + vif2.1 | |
-----> | | |
| | | |
| ----------------------------- |
------------------ | |
| Debian server2 | | |
------------------- | |
| eth0 10.0.1.1 | ----/ |
-------------------vif2.1 |
|
|
|
=================================================== /
| Domain 0: hypervisor (gentoo) | eth0 | <---
============================================== | ==
| eth1 192.168.9.59 | |
===================== PPPoE clients |
===================== /
| net 172.16.0.0/16 |<-
++++++++++++++++++++++
On Debian_server1-eth0 (vif1.1) there is a server pppoe.
Debian_sever1-eth0 is configured so:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr xx:00:00:xx:xx:xx
inet6 addr: xxxx::xxxx:xx:xxxx:xxxx/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:21097 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:20677 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:1431231 (1.3 MiB) TX bytes:1296240 (1.2 MiB)
I configurate these iface with "ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 up".
This iface does not use arp protocol and so I want disabled it: drop arp
request to eth0 and denied sending arp request from eth0 (vif1.1).
For do this I try with ebtables (directly from dom-0 and physical eth0);
with "ifconfig ... -arp" and with "ip link set eth0 arp off"
but doesn''t
work. Same mechanisms to block arp protocol on computer without xen
work.
I blocked arp protocol but there are always arp request from physical
eth0 for resolve ip 0.0.0.0. These arp requests can be see from pppoe
clients but can''t be see (always with ethereal) from dom-0.
So there are this problems:
1) Why I can''t see arp request from dom-0 (ethereal) while I can see
them from clients?
2) Why I can''t disable arp protocol on physical eth0?
3) Why if I call mii-tool I can''t read information about link?
testing_xen ~ # mii-tool
SIOCGMIIPHY on ''eth0'' failed: Operation not supported
eth1: negotiated 100baseTx-FD flow-control, link ok
testing_xen ~ # ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
No data available
eth0 is a e1000 iface. Moreover, if I execute
testing_xen ~ # modprobe -r e1000
testing_xen ~ # modprobe e1000
then eth0 (physical) isn''t removed correctly in fact, from dmesg:
testing_xen ~ # dmesg | tail
xen-br0: port 2(peth0) entering disabled state

There is a new interface eth2 and eth0 is unused.
testing_xen ~ # mii-tool
SIOCGMIIPHY on ''eth0'' failed: Operation not supported
eth1: negotiated 100baseTx-FD flow-control, link ok
eth2: no autonegotiation, 10baseT-HD, link ok
Moreover, from mii-tool it is possible see that eth0 is blocked and
previous physical eth0 (now eth2) can read correctly from mii-tool.
Still:
testing_xen ~ # ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
No data available
testing_xen ~ # ethtool eth2
Settings for eth2:

I hope that I''m been light.
Thanks.
P.S. My english is not wonderful, sorry!
