[Xen-users] Networking problem
Hello,
I have created the domU with the IP address 192.168.0.4. Here
what is in the /etc/xen/xmdefconfig file:
=======================================================================
kernel="/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen"
memory=512
extra="fastboot"
#network
vif=['']
dhcp="off"
hostname="compnode"
name="compnode"
ip="192.168.0.4"
netmask="255.255.255.0"
ramdisk="/boot/initrd-2.6-xen.img"
disk=['phy:/dev/hda3,sda1,w','phy:/dev/hda5,sda2,w']
root="/dev/sda1 ro"
=======================================================================
In /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp file I have the following lines uncommented:
===============================
(network-script network-nat)
(vif-script vif-nat)
===============================
Then I have created the domU:
#> xm create -c
In domU I see:
#> ifconfig
=========================================================================
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:16:3E:00:20:93

RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:294 (294.0 b)
=========================================================================
In dom0 I see:
#> ifconfig
============================================================================
vif5.0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
inet addr:10.0.5.128 Bcast:0.0.0.0 Mask:255.255.255.255

RX bytes:294 (294.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
============================================================================
When I change the IP address on vif5.0 I am able to ping from dom0 to domU
and in the reverse direction:
#> ifconfig vif5.0 198.162.0.3
#> ifconfig
=========================================================================
vif5.0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF

==========================================================================
[In dom0]
#> ping 198.162.0.4

[In domU]
#> ping 198.162.0.3
===========================================================
PING 192.168.0.3 (192.168.0.3) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 192.168.0.3: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.235 ms

64 bytes from 192.168.0.3: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.212 ms
...
===========================================================
However, when I re-start my domU, the IP address of vifY.0
interface changes to 10.0.Y.128 with netmask 255.255.255.255.
So, the question is: how can I force the vifY.0 have the same
IP address (for example, 192.168.0.3) each time it is created
(with a netmask, different from 255.255.255.255)?
Arsen.
