Xen devel - Jun 2007 - xen network bridge configuration during packet reception and transmission

hi all

there are some queries related to packet reception and transmission in
xen network. I have already reffered the link given below but
information given is not on transmission and reception of packet.

http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-02/msg00030.html


if the packets come to the network card for a domU which is currently
not running then how dom0 insure the correct delivery of the packet to
vif interface of that domU
Is it like that vif-bridge scripts will run only at the time of domU
starts up again. that in turn means vif are not connected to bridge
when they are not running.
is it like all the virtual interface wil have same mac address. if yes
then at bridge how the delivery will happen to perticuler VIF only.

thanks
TEJ
