Hi Luis,
I think i'm using a setup similar to yours:
I'm using debian on my dom0 and domU's, xen4, pvops xen-next kernel for domU.
in /etc/network/interfaces I create a xen_bridge on boot
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth1
iface eth1 inet static
address 172.16.1.1
netmask 255.255.0.0
auto xen_bridge
iface xen_bridge inet static
address 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
# #gateway <your_default_gateway>
# #pre-up ifconfig eth0 down
pre-up brctl addbr xen_bridge
# #pre-up brctl addif xen-bridge eth0
# #pre-up ifconfig eth0 up
# #post-down ifconfig eth0 down
# #post-down brctl delif xen-bridge eth0
On which all the domU's will connect.
in xend-config.sxp, I use:
(network-script network-dummy)
(vif-script vif-bridge)
In domU config files I specify IP, MAC and the bridge to connect to:
vif = [ 'bridge=xen_bridge,ip=192.168.1.6,mac=00:16:3E:49:0E:FA' ]
Traffic between bridge and eth0 and eth1 is routed with iptables/ipmasq.
This works fine for me.
