Hello,

I am trying to configure a hosted machine to run a number of virtual
machines. The DomU is CentOS 5 with Xen 3.0.

I have to use routed networking as the ISP has set the switch to
disconnect the port if it receives traffic from any other MAC. My
situation is identical to this posting:
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-03/msg00725.html

I have followed the suggestion in that thread (See this post for what he
got to work:
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-03/msg00949.html)
and am running the domU with:

vif = [ "ip=domU_IP_HERE,bridge=virbr0" ]
ip = "domU_IP_HERE"
netmask="255.255.255.255"
gateway="10.255.255.1"

The domU is configured with the same IP details and I have run:
ip route add default dev eth0


Having followed all the steps outlined in that mail I can't send/receive
from domU.

The network setup on dom0 is:

#ifconfig

Can anyone see where I have gone wrong? Any suggestions on how to proceed
from here?

Thanks,
