I bring up the bridge via /etc/network/interfaces:

auto xenbridge-e1000
iface xenbridge-e1000 inet static
      address 172.16.0.2
      netmask 255.255.255.0
      network 172.16.0.0
      bridge_ports eth-e1000

(I've renamed the interfaces via udev, but it should work as well with
bridge_ports eth0, or something like that)

And have in my /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp:

(network-script network-dummy)


Network is working from the bootup regardless of any DomU running or not.

Good Luck!

Geza
