Hello,

Need inputs on creating "vif" interface with a different name i.e when a domU is installed, vif<dom-id>:<intf-num> is created by default in dom0 and domU which then triggers xenbus state-machine and communication is established. We want to change the name to be  "ncr<dom-id>:<intf-num>", the reason being, we are developing our driver specific netfront and netback which will monitor "ncr" to trigger xenbus state-machine. I am not sure where to start in-order to make these changes. Inputs will be very much appreciated.

Thanks
-RK
