[Xen-users] Xen Networking and VDE2.

[Thiago Camargo Martins Cordeiro <thiagocmartinsc@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi!

I'm with Ubuntu 8.10 running KVM with VDE2, VDE2 is used to create a virtual switch for my guests, let me show:

KVM with VDE:

On ubuntu-8.10:

sudo -s
vde_switch -tap tap0 -daemon
ifconfig tap0 192.168.1.254
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
vdekvm -hda /dev/mapper/HyperVG01-test--disk1 -cdrom livecd-xen-3.2-0.8.2-i386.iso -m 512 -boot d

And in the guest live section:
xenalive# ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
xenalive# ip r add default 192.168.1.254
xenalive# echo "nameserver 192.168.1.254 > /etc/resolv.conf"
xenalive$ ping wordweb.com.br
PING worldweb.com.br (200.155.1.204) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from srv05.worldweb.com.br (200.155.1.204): icmp_seq=1 ttl=51 time=403 ms

If I boot another KVM guest on the same vde_switch, both can ping each other and the external network...

Now I have a virtual switch for my client's virtual machines and its own VLANs. That's what I need for my Xen Networking! But how?

How to connect my paravirtual (PV) domU with the vde_switch running in my dom0?

 I have read the folloing docs:

I want a "VM Xen" on this diagram:

Someone can help me?

And on Eucalyptus presentation at page 12, you can see that it uses VDE and, has I know, Eucalyptus controls Xen, so... how they do it?
