Hi Andrew,

i have a setup with 2 bridges, one on ethertap tap0 serving internal services like nfs for xenU domains and one on separate bridge eth0 for outside communication. so xen0/xenU internal traffic won't effect the bridge on eth0 and performance is much better... you need to define the mac in config-file, because with dynamic configuration both eth-devices in xenU will have same mac.

Actually, what I wanted to do was assign a xen virtual front-end ethernet to domain0, in a similar manner that one would assign one to another domain (nics = 1 in config file). I can't seem to do that for domain0. It seems like the options for domain0 ae a bit limited.


Sorry, I don't understand what you mean. Are you saying no network interfaces are available in domain0? domain0 has access to all physical interfaces installed on your machine. For example, I have a 3c59x and a RTL8139 which are both accessible from domain0 as eth0 and eth1, respectively.

I would like to have one device per domain: domain0 has scsi controller1, domin2 has network adapter 1, etc. In order to do this, domain0 still needs network access.
