Hi,

In domU's config file, I specify the name of the network interfaces, like:

vif = [ 'vifname=x17.162, mac=00:16:3E:00:01:62,bridge=xenbr0' ]

When I create a PVM domU, the interface name is right.

When I create a HVM domU, there will be a additional network interface
named "tapN".  How to know tap0 related to which domU?  Or how to
avoid the tapN interfaces like PVM? I use mrtg to monitor domU's
network usage.

Xen version is 3.2.1

Thanks!
