With Xen 2.0/Debian in standard bridged mode.

Seems easy enough to get vlans working between domUs on the same host.
 Don't have a vlan switch handy, so I haven't try it between two
different hosts.

I was able to get a vconfig add eth0 2; ifconfig eth0.2 172.16.0.2;
ping 172.16.0.1, working in a trival way without doing any
configuration in dom0.

However I'm not sure how to get a vlan interface on dom0 to talk via
the bridge to the vlans in the domUs.

Neither vconfig add eth0 2 or vconfig add xen-br0 2 seemed to work.
Also adding (addif) either interface to the bridge didn't help either.

Suggestions or hints?


My goal is to have two or more machines/dom0 operating in a basic
manner, and domUs on these machines segmented into different networks.
