[Xen-devel] [INFO] Setting up bridges in Debian /etc/network/interfaces

[George Dunlap <dunlapg@xxxxxxxxx>]

OK, after a bit of playing around, I managed to figure out how to set
up /etc/network/interfaces without the network-bridge script.  Below
is an example system that has 2 nics, one with a dynamic IP address
and one with a static IP, and two bridges, one for each nic.
Hopefully it will be of help to those affected by the xencommons /
xend config change. :-)
