[Xen-users] [SOLVED] Re: No external network for domU's
Fixed this. Turns out the network I'm in requires MAC addresses to be tied to
IP addresses, and automatically ties the first MAC address that uses a new IP
to it. Since I reinstalled once, the MAC address generated by Xen for the IP I
was using changed, and consequently blocked all traffic to/from the VM's IP.
Ergo, updating the MAC data tied to the IP resolved the issue.

Did you configure eth0 of domU with mac address mac=00:16:3e:1a:19:23

If not then please first modify yr
/etc/syscongig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0. with the above mac as in
config file then add proper guest IP and NETASK and gateway same as
dom0. then restart the network.
then see ifconfig if yr eth0 is up in domU.
If it is then it should be ok.
Yes, this was already done. Results of ifconfig:
# ifconfig

if not then you can check roting table into domU.
You prorbably need to configure the IP routing table in domU.
First see the routing atable to dom0 using below command.
#route -v
Then add the entryies for the domU also.
Also already verified, results of "route -n" from domU:
# route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use
Iface
10.74.154.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0

eth0
0.0.0.0 10.74.154.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0
eth0
This route table is the same as what I get for dom0. As far as I can
tell, everything *should* be OK, but it still doesn't work.
Thanks,
Trilok
Thank you. Any and all help is appreciated!

I have been trying to get this to work for several days with no
luck...
I'm using a RHEL5 (x86_64) dom0 with a single, eth0 physical
device. I'm trying to add a single domU with a network bridge (the
default). I can add the domU OK, but the network on the domU can
only access the dom0 (anything to the internet fails). I'm a bit of
a Xen newbie, but in 3 days of searching on-line, I haven't found
anything that has helped get this working.
Basic net settings:
dom0 IP = 10.74.154.200 <http://10.74.154.200>
domU IP = 10.74.154.202 <http://10.74.154.202>
NETMASK (both) = 255.255.255.0 <http://255.255.255.0>
GATEWAY (both) = 10.74.154.1 <http://10.74.154.1>
domU vif setting:
vif = [ 'type=ioemu, mac=00:16:3e:1a:19:23, bridge=xenbr0' ]
Clean boot of the system with just the dom0 running gives me the
following "ifconfig" and "brctl show" results:

I don't know why it's changing the MAC address for xenbr0. Should
it be? I don't even know where that new MAC address is coming
from. Also, the only thing resembling an error in any of the logs
is in /var/log/messages (and dmesg):

ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): vif2.0: link is not ready
and that's where it ends. I'm pretty sure I should see a matching
"vif2.0: link becomes ready" line, but it never shows up.
I'm frustrated enough to consider dropping Xen altogether. If
anyone has any idea what may be going on, I would greatly appreciate
any help.
Regards,
James
