Hi Andrew,

i have a setup with 2 bridges, one on ethertap tap0 serving internal services like nfs for xenU domains and one on separate bridge eth0 for outside communication. so xen0/xenU internal traffic won't effect the bridge on eth0 and performance is much better... you need to define the mac in config-file, because with dynamic configuration both eth-devices in xenU will have same mac.

Rgds,
Bjoern



but i wasn't able to configure vtun/vtap with udev on my gentoo box.

Subject: [Xen-devel] allocating virtual nic to domain0

Is it possible to allocate a virtual nic to domain0?  I guess under
normal conditions you would not need to do this, but I am trying some
experiments, and it would be useful.

Thanks,

-Andrew Theurer
