[Xen-users] eth0 on dom0 not working on a bridged conf
Hi,
  I''ve installed xen 3.0.3 from packages (xen-linux-system) on a debian
etch, and i''ve configured it with network-bridge script in the default 
way (netdev=eth0, bridge=xenbr0, etc...) which is ok for me.
the problem I have:
  I cannot ping any outer machine from dom0 (nor any outer machine can 
ping me). It gives me a "Destination Host Unreachable" message that 
makes me think there is no arp response.
other symptoms:
  I can ping from dom0 any domU''s I create...
    ... and from those domU''s I can ping dom0 and also the outer 
machines that I was unable to ping from dom0. => so, xenbr0 if working 
properly with peth0, vifX.0 (and eth0 on domU''s)
  Configuration looks fine in comparation with other xen 3.0 machines I 
have working. Here is a "/etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge status":
===========================================================6: eth0:

===========================================================
  If I manually "/etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge stop",  eth0 begins 
working correctly with the exterior (I can ping, ssh, outer machines and 
viceversa).
  dmesg, xend.log and xen-debug.log looks fine for me, but I may missed 
up something .
  I''ve installed tshark to test the communications when network-bridge 
is up, but my knowledge is not enough to understand what''s happening. 
I''ll send the output of whatever you ask me.
Thanks if anyone can help. I am lost after trying almost my best.

Re: [Xen-users] eth0 on dom0 not working on a bridged conf
Here I''ll paste some output that explains the problem in command line 
language (my English is not better than my cli):
172.30.1.16 is the IP for my dom0
172.30.1.81 is the IP for a domU
172.30.1.11 is the IP of an outer machine
Thanks

RE: [Xen-users] eth0 on dom0 not working on a bridged conf
I think eth0 should be included under interfaces here:
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
xenbr0          8000.feffffffffff       no              vif0.0
                                                        peth0
                                                        vif3.0
The appropriate brctl command will add it to the bridge (not at a Linux
machine to get you that command).  This is because peth0 is the physical
connection to the network and eth0 is where your address is assigned.  This
is the normal setup for older versions of xen, except eth0 should have been
automatically added to the bridge during startup.  On newer versions, xenbr0
is deprecated and eth0 is the bridge (which has the address assigned to
itself).

Subject: [Xen-users] eth0 on dom0 not working on a bridged conf
Hi,
  I''ve installed xen 3.0.3 from packages (xen-linux-system) on a debian
etch, and i''ve configured it with network-bridge script in the default 
way (netdev=eth0, bridge=xenbr0, etc...) which is ok for me.
the problem I have:
  I cannot ping any outer machine from dom0 (nor any outer machine can 
ping me). It gives me a "Destination Host Unreachable" message that 
makes me think there is no arp response.
other symptoms:
  I can ping from dom0 any domU''s I create...
    ... and from those domU''s I can ping dom0 and also the outer 
machines that I was unable to ping from dom0. => so, xenbr0 if working 
properly with peth0, vifX.0 (and eth0 on domU''s)
  Configuration looks fine in comparation with other xen 3.0 machines I 
have working. Here is a "/etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge status":
===========================================================6: eth0:

===========================================================
  If I manually "/etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge stop",  eth0 begins 
working correctly with the exterior (I can ping, ssh, outer machines and 
viceversa).
  dmesg, xend.log and xen-debug.log looks fine for me, but I may missed 
up something .
  I''ve installed tshark to test the communications when network-bridge 
is up, but my knowledge is not enough to understand what''s happening. 
I''ll send the output of whatever you ask me.
Thanks if anyone can help. I am lost after trying almost my best.

RE: [Xen-users] eth0 on dom0 not working on a bridged conf
No I think that is correct because Javier is using an old Xen version (3.0.3). What does your ARP table on Dom0 show? Does it have a binding for 172.30.1.81 (your external machine)? It looks as if your ARP requests from Dom0 do not reach the network, and so the ping request does not go out.> -----Original Message----- > From: xen-users-bounces@lists.xensource.com [mailto:xen-users- > bounces@lists.xensource.com] On Behalf Of Dustin Henning > Sent: 03 September 2008 17:48 > To: ''Javier Merino''; xen-users@lists.xensource.com > Subject: RE: [Xen-users] eth0 on dom0 not working on a bridged conf > > I think eth0 should be included under interfaces here: > > bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces > xenbr0 8000.feffffffffff no vif0.0 > peth0 > vif3.0 > > The appropriate brctl command will add it to the bridge (not at a Linux > machine to get you that command).

Re: [Xen-users] eth0 on dom0 not working on a bridged conf
You are right Anna(except that my external machine is 172.30.1.11): arp tables in dom0 has not binding for the external machine (172.30.1.11) while it has for domU (172.30.1.81). But my external machine ''can see'' the arp packets sent from dom0 and is replying to them. So arp-request packets are going out the bridge, but arp-response packets seems not to be going back from the bridge xenbr0. I''m not sure about this. Thank you both. NOTES: Dustin: the other set up I have with xen 3.0 has the same brctl configuration. I suppose it is the 3.0 conf as Anna said. I have not setup an interface for ''default router'' 172.30.1.1 at my router, but I think this should not interfere. *dom0 172.30.1.16* blade06:~# ping 172.30.1.81 PING 172.30.1.81 (172.30.1.81) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 172.30.1.81: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.898 ms ... blade06:~# ping 172.30.1.11 PING 172.30.1.11 (172.30.1.11) 56(84) bytes of data.

I''m still with the same problem, but I know better what is not working. It is not just arp packets, but all incoming ethernet traffic to eth0 en dom0.

RE: [Xen-users] eth0 on dom0 not working on a bridged conf
I am not sure. If you don''t see any packets it is always worth checking if iptables is dropping packets. How does your "iptables -L" look like? I think there have been many issue with networking on several distributions with the older Xen version. Maybe it''d be worth a try to upgrade to a newer Xen version?> -----Original Message----- > From: Javier Merino [mailto:jmerino@iib.uam.es] > Sent: 04 September 2008 12:32 > To: Fischer, Anna > Cc: Dustin.Henning@prd-inc.com; xen-users@lists.xensource.com > Subject: Re: [Xen-users] eth0 on dom0 not working on a bridged conf > > I''m still with the same problem, but I know better what is not working. > > It is not just arp packets, but all incoming ethernet traffic to eth0 > en > dom0. > > If I enforce arp to bind the mac addr to the ip addr, dom0 sends the > ping, the external host replies to the ping, but the reply is never > seen > at dom0. > > *this is what I see from the external host with tshark when dom0 pings > it* > 9895.649694 172.30.1.16 -> 172.30.1.11 ICMP Echo (ping) request > 9895.649754 172.30.1.11 -> 172.30.1.16 ICMP Echo (ping) reply > > > *this is how I have enforced arp, and how ping is sent and echo > received > from domU 172.30.1.81, * > *but not from the external host 172.30.1.11* > > blade06:~/debug# arp -n > blade06:~/debug# tshark -i eth0 ether host 00:14:5e:da:3a:a2 & > [1] 3944 > blade06:~/debug# Capturing on eth0 > > blade06:~/debug# ping -c 1 172.30.1.11 > PING 172.30.1.11 (172.30.1.11) 56(84) bytes of data. > 0.000000 Ibm_da:3a:a2 -> Broadcast ARP Who has 172.30.1.11?
