Hello all!

I have a big question to the Xen-gurus out there. I want to establish a tricky 
virtual network with Xen cause I have to migrate my old network to a new one. A 
suggestion is to buy a big machine which should work alone without any other 
machines. Beneath is a draft of the desired network. It's simmilar to the 
existing network.

Domain2 and Domain5 each have privileged access to one networkcard which is 
provided by domian0 (intra-/internet). So, there is no need for me to have a 
network attached at domain0. And further I don't want server processes on 
domain0. Domain0 should only control the others. It should not be possible for 
the Domain1 to 8 to "see" Domain0.

So, what's the question? My problem is the virtual networking with Xen. I'm 
still not good in configuring Xen so maybe someone can help me with a little 
example. I don't need a whole configuration-howto for the drafted network but 
some hints in the way of virtual networking in Xen.

Thank you!

The virtual network should be like this:
                                        +-------+
+--Domain4              Internet--+     |Domain0|
|                                 |     +-------+
|                                 |
+--Domain3--+         +--Domain2--+
            |         |
            |         |

                                  +--Domain8
