Hi list,
I''ve been googling around for several days now, but with no luck.
I''m
hoping someone here might be able to help me out...
I''ve installed and run Xen 3.0.4 (I need this specific version) with no
problem, and the guests run smoothly; the only problem is that I have
never been able to get
the guests to ping the host (Dom0), or vice versa. I cannot access the
internet from the guests, but it works fine on Dom0.
I have only one NIC on Dom0 (eth0) that connects to the internet. Right
now I''m just trying to get the guests and Dom0 to recognize each other,
let alone guests''
internet access.
I''ve tried network-bridge, network-nat, network-route, and even some
custom scripts such as network-private
(http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-09/msg00925.html)
and network-virtual (http://en.opensuse.org/Xen3_and_a_Virtual_Network),
with no success.
I''ve tried all I could, but here''s one thing I believe is the
problem.
When I run ifconfig on Dom0, I see this on the guest''s vif:
vif2.0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
UP BROADCAST NOARP MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:32
RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
As you can see, I don''t see a "RUNNING" flag on
guests'' vifs.
Can anyone please help me out? I''m completely lost here.
I''m running Ubuntu 7.04, and I''m experimenting with an HVM
guest (Windows
XP).
I am using a BroadCom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5754 Gigabit Ethernet PCI
Express (rev 02), and I am currently using the BroadCom driver.
I''ve also tried the ethtool command you gave me, but it didn''t
work
either.
Rather, here''s what I saw when I did ethtool on vif''s:
root@perodua:~# ethtool vif0.0
Settings for vif0.0:
Link detected: yes
root@perodua:~# ethtool vif2.0
Settings for vif2.0:
Link detected: no
root@perodua:~#
So it seems that my HVM Windows XP guest is not "plugged in", hence no
"RUNNING" flag on ifconfig; how should I go about fixing this?
I''m even more confused now because the following post
(http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2005-12/msg00017.html)
suggests that a tg3 based machine
(tg3 is the name of the BroadCom driver) works out of the box with no
hassle.
Any ideas? Any help is appreciated.
Also, if it helps, the following is my guest domain config file:
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder = ''hvm''
memory = 196
name = ''vm1''
vif = [ ''type=ioemu, mac=00:16:3E:00:00:01, bridge=xenbr0'' ]
ip="192.168.0.2"
netmask="255.255.255.0"
gateway="192.168.0.1"
disk = [
''file:/xen-images/hvm_winxp/winxp-qcow.img,ioemu:hda,w'',
''file:/xen-images/iso/winxppro.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'' ]
device_model = ''/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm''
boot="c"
on_poweroff = ''destroy''
on_crash="preserve"
on_reboot="preserve"
sdl=0
vnc=1
vncviewer=1
localtime=1
usb=1
usbdevice=''tablet''
Thx,
Jun
