RE: [Xen-users] Dummy ethernet device setup

Never tried it but could you do it with
bridges?   You can add the ip to the xenbr1 with brctl addbr xenbr1 ifconfig xenbr1 192.168.10.1 netmask

 Subject: [Xen-users] Dummy
ethernet device setup
   Hello you all out there
 
 Does
anybody know the definite guide to create a dummy ethernet device?
 
 So,
what I want to have is an ethernet device, without a physical link, or so
called a dummy device. My goal is to have apache with mod_proxy and balancer
running on peth0 in dom0. Apache is spreading my connection to the backend
domU's, where the webservices are running. The connection between the dom's
should go on dom0 over the dummy interface and they are all connected over a
bridge. Hope the following ascii-art explains it a little bit better:
 
 
 
 -------------------------------------------------------------

               peth0      
                 |
 |
               DOM0      
                 |
 |
                       
                |
 |
               tun0 (dummy dev)    
   |
 |
                 xenbr1    
                   |
 |----------------------------------------------------------

 I
tried with tun to setup the stuff, but I've got several problems. I search a
lot in the internet, but I didn't find a good documentation. So my question is,
how to setup cleanly such a dummy device. Any help or link to documentation is
welcome! Thanks a lot for your help
 
 
 bye
Philipp
