Well, I Tried lots of things ( raise the MTU on physicall interface
(dom0) , on the bridge (dom0), on the vifs (dom0/domU), etc etc)
neither of this works (various errors).
Don't know where the limitation is : bridge or xen vif.
I'll now go for PCI virtualisation, as I really don't have usage of THIS
physical interface on dom0.
I bet this will work.
Thanks for your answer,
