[Xen-users] error with vif parameter

[Tim Freeman <tfreeman@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm finding I cannot use the vif parameter with 'bridge' only 

For example:

vif=bridge=xen-br2 


This errors out:

>From the looks of it, this None seems to be the problem:

(device (vif (mac 'None') (bridge xen-br2)))

The 'xm help create' command suggests you can leave any of the vif subparameters
out to invoke the defaults, so this should work, right? 

When specifying the MAC address also, it works: 
vif=mac=00:11:22:33:44:55,bridge=xen-br2

Thanks,
Tim
