Re: [Xen-users] How to set up real network cards?

[Jason <fearthepenguin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think those first 4 ports should pass thru, but the last ones Im not 
sure about because those appear to be a sub device and I haven't had 
much luck passing just the sub piece.  You should be able to pass 
1:00.0  or 2:00.0 etc and it should show up as ethX in your DomU at 
which point it is 100% regular linux networking.
