[Xen-users] configure advanced networking

["Rob Mokkink" <rob@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For extending my virtualization knowledge (vmware etc) I decided to go and explore xen.

I have a dev box. Proliant server with 3 nics.

Installing guest etc. is no problem. Working on a box with one nic is really easy, but I want to do some more advanced networking setup with xen.

 

What I want to accomplish is the following:

 

Eth0 = for xen dom0 only

Eth1 = for guests only

Eth2 = for guests only

 

I have read a lot of docs etc. etc.

Examples like:

 

http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/470

 

But I am not quit sure if I can get it to work.

 

I have the following idea.

 

Create a basic script to create bridged interface:

 

#!/bin/sh

dir=$(dirname "$0")

"$dir/network-bridge" "$@" vifnum=1 netdev=eth1 bridge=xenbr1

"$dir/network-bridge" "$@" vifnum=2 netdev=eth2 bridge=xenbr2

So only eth1 and eth2 are bridged.

And i configure the guests to only use xenbr1 en xenbr2.

And after doing that, how do I limit access to dom0 to eth1 and eth2, or is that not possible?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Rob
