Xen users - Jan 2008 - Creating Virtual Network-Interface under XEN 3.2.0 for Domain0

Hello,

I''ve installed the brand new XEN 3.2.0.
I miss the veth devices where you can define more than one Network  
interface under the Domain0.
How is it possible to create this kind of devices and connect them for  
example to a second bridge for
different routing purposes ??

In XEN 3.1 it is possible. Someone an idea ??

Cheers,
Maik

Are you saying that you can do it in 3.1, but not 3.2?

If it is simply doing more advanced networking in general then the basic
idea is to make your own custom network scripts that call the pre-defined
ones.

a quick google search found some examples:

Hi Todd,

thanks for the reply, but in this example there is already a second  
physical device peth1 which will
create then the second eth1 interface.

But what I want is an additional Virtual-Network interface which is  
not really there (physical).
I have one network card inside which will be mapped to peth0 and is  
build to the bridge (for example xenbr0)
For the Dom0 we are having then a eth0 Interface.
Now I want to create the veth1 which is bound for example to xenbr1.  
But this veth1 is not physical there, it should
be a virtual one. So in XEN 3.1 during the start of xen it will be  
created automatically like:

veth1     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00
           BROADCAST MULTICAST  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:0
           RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)

veth2     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00
           BROADCAST MULTICAST  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:0
           RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)

but in the XEN 3.2 version, there is nothing like this. So as I know  
the developers have changed a lot.
Maybe this is one of the changes. But how can I add one of this  
interfaces again.

Hope my situation is now a little bit mor clear.
Thanks.

Cheers,
Maik
