Hi

> I'm using Xen 3.0.3 on two servers with Debian Etch (amd64). These
> servers have 10 nics (2 onboard and 8 in two 4-port cards) so that
> every vm can have its own interface.

Just for interest... why?
Aren't they all connected to the very same switch?

> So there's no xenbr0 up and brctl shows this:
> > server:~# brctl show
> bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
> eth0            8000.000e0c43ab3d       no              peth0

So there IS a bridge, but it's name is eth0, which is default for xen
3.2.1...
Earlier versions created xenbr0 and added a virtual interface eth0, newer
versions just name the bridge eth0. Basically the same, with one indirection
less.

Regards,
