Hi Tim,
Thanks for the update.
I am using FC5.
As your first way to provide one more ip to guest as a different machine.
This looks fine for me. But how the mac address are configured for
interface card in guest domain and what values are given to mac
addresses. Is it can be anything ?.
What is relation between vif in config file and mac address for interface card in guest doamin.
Is the mac in vif in config file and mac for interface card in guest domain dhould be same.
example:
My dom0 IP 139.185.48.204
and config file for configuration file contains vif
vif = [ 'mac=FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF , ip=139.185.48.214 , bridge=xenbr2']
Now tell me, Is mac of eth0 in guest domain should be FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF as in vif and same as IP.
I also want that my mchines should be pingable from each other.
This is bit confusing for me.
Thanks,
Trilok

You would do this as you would normally. For all intensive purposes,
dom-0 and your guest can be counted as two completely separate machines.
I'm assuming dom-0 has an IP, just provide one for your guest.
Another useful way of doing this is bringing up a second bridge that
doesn't port any physical ethernet device, and using it as you would a
dumb ethernet switch. This lets you have a public and private network,
the private being between the guests themselves and dom-0. Each guest
gets 2 vif's, one using the public bridge, one using the dummy (private)
bridge.
If you give an indication of what OS you're using on dom-0, it would be
easier to give some examples or better pointers. I'm happy to help with
anything GNU .. but don't often venture into Fedora or other yum-ish
distros with bridged networking or Xen.
Best,
-Tim
