Re: [Xen-users] How to setup Xen for 3 bridges environment?

Hong, I don't grasp the full complexity of what you're trying to do, butI note that you are bypassing the vif0.x/veth0.x interfaces in dom0which bypasses some special xen networking magic. Instead of assigningip addresses directly to xbrwan0, add vif0.0 to xbrwan0 and assign theaddresses to veth0. Likewise for the other bridges.


Search the list tcp checksum errors for more info on this.

Cheers,
Dan.

Hi Fernando Maior,

Thanks for your information. I have a quick look on the Wiki document,but find that it is a bit different from my current setup.In my setup, I create 3 bridges in dom0 and dom0 also act as thefirewall.

Following is the summary of my configuration:

1) I by-pass the Xen bridge.

- comment out the '(network-script network-bridge)' and '(vif-scriptvif-bridge)' in 'xend-config.sxp'

  - comment out the 'handle_iptable' in vif-bridge.

2) Create my own 3 bridges as follows:
  #
  # xbrwan0 (Wan bridge)
  #
  ip link set eth0 down
  ip addr flush eth0
  brctl addbr xbrwan0
  brctl stp xbrwan0 off
  brctl setfd xbrwan0 0

ip addr add 192.168.21.11/24 dev xbrwan0 brd + (the xbrwan0 bridgeip)ip addr add 192.168.21.15/24 dev xbrwan0 brd + (NAT ip to192.168.22.15)ip addr add 192.168.21.16/24 dev xbrwan0 brd + (NAT ip to192.168.22.16)

  sleep 2
  brctl addif xbrwan0 eth0
  ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 up
  ip link set xbrwan0 up
  #
  # xbrdmz0 (Dmz bridge)
  #
  brctl addbr xbrdmz0
  brctl stp xbrdmz0 off
  brctl setfd xbrdmz0 0

ifconfig xbrdmz0 192.168.22.11 netmask 255.255.255.0 up (the Dmzbridge ip)

  #
  # xbrlan0 (Lan bridge)
  #
  brctl addbr xbrlan0
  brctl stp xbrlan0 off
  brctl setfd xbrlan0 0

ifconfig xbrlan0 192.168.23.11 netmask 255.255.255.0 up (the Lanbridge ip)


3) Start two domU with ip 15 and 16
  xm create domU01  (ip 192.168.21.15)
  xm create domU02  (ip 192.168.21.16)

4) Create the NAT tables.
  #
  iptables -X
  iptables -F
  iptables -X -t nat
  iptables -F -t nat

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i xbrwan0 -d 192.168.21.15 -j DNAT--to 192.168.22.15iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o xbrwan0 -s 192.168.22.15 -j SNAT--to 192.168.21.15iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i xbrwan0 -d 192.168.21.16 -j DNAT--to 192.168.22.16iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o xbrwan0 -s 192.168.22.16 -j SNAT--to 192.168.21.16

  sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1

In above setup, I ssh from Pc in Wan to domU01 and domU02.

If I didn't create the Wan bridge, instead using the eth0, I can sshfrom PC in Wan to domU01 and domU02.

Hong,

Did you have a look at Xen wiki documentation? You may
compare http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenNetworkingSuse
to your experience and try something like that.

Hello,

I am new to Xen and is trying a confugration that simulates a firewall
environment.
My target environment is to setup three bridges: one for Wan(xen-br0), one
for DMZ (xbrdmz) and one for Lan (xbrlan)
The three subnet are as follows:
Wan: 192.168.21.0/24
Dmz: 192.168.22.0/24
Lan:   192.168.23.0/24

I use xen3.0 and FC4 for both dom0 and domU.
My machine currently has one Nic, eth0, and I ensalve it into the Wanbridge
xen-br0.

Dom0 has the IP address 192.168.21.11. I have two domU in DMZ with IP
192.168.22.15, 192.168.22.16).
I use NAT 192.168.21.15 -> 192.168.22.15 and 192.168.21.16 ->192.168.22.16
so that the PC from Wan can access the PC.
Most of the things work fine. I can ping dom0 and the two domU and vice
versa. I can ssh from dom0 and domU and vice versa and I can ssh fromPC on
Wan to dom0.
The only problem is that I cannot ssh from PC on Wan to domU.
I have tried another setup. If I don't use the Wan bridge ( xen-br0 )andjust use the eth0 and the Dmz bridge (xbrdmz), everything worksperfectly.
(I can ssh from PC on Wan to domU also).
However, I still want to have the Wan bridge cause I can add somedomU in
Wan subnet (so that I can say, add some IDS domU to Wan bridge).
I have searched the mailing list and find a similar case is:
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2005-06/msg00669.html

I have tried the NOTRACK option but still can help in my case.

Just wonder anyone has setup similar environment?
Thanks alot.
