Hi all,

I need to deploy an IDS under Xen to test some features. This guest will have three interfaces, one for management and the other to sniff network traffic. Sniffed interfaces ara connected to phisycal host interfaces, but the other not (because host server only have two physical interfaces).

I thought to setup management interface using a dumb driver like dummy, but dummy speed it is very very poor (2-3 MB/s). Somebody knows how can I setup more transfer speed on a dummy driver or how can I setup another type of dumb interface to accomplish this?

Many thanks.
