Just use the default bridging config xen comes with.
It makes the outside world think that there's an additional switch/hub at the
end of your network cable, with dom0 + domU + domU + ... attached to it.
(bridge and physical eth0 run without IP adress, all domains (including dom0)
are attached to the bridge with "virtual network cables", the vif->veth
pairs)
