Here, on a setup using the network-bridge topology, we have, after
starting Xen :

- eth0 in Dom0 : which has the ip address
- peth0 : the physical ethernet
- vif0.0 : the other extremity of eth0
- xenbr0 : the bridge where peth0 and vif0.0 (and the further vifX) are
  included

So, from this point of view, what you get seems quite normal.
