Re: [Xen-users] documentation for Xen networking

I'm having some difficulty finding any reference material that doesn't ultimately end up with "use the Xen scripts to do all the magic". The scripts unfortuantely raise more questions for me than they answer.

Anyway, has anybody already done this (or something similar)? Is there better documentation for how everything gets created? Are there examples some place that aren't the scripts in /etc/xen/scripts?

I have set up a very similar configuration. The problem with using hand-made scripts is when Xen updates, the scripts may break. It may be a good time to get what we have made and submit it back to Xen so hopefully a config such as this will be maintained as part of the source, as I am sure others would also make use of this and aid its refinement.

Would you mind posting your scripts to the list? I'm still doing everything by hand at this point. Ultimately, I'd like to get to the point where I'm using the Debian infrastructure (/etc/network/interfaces and ifup/ifdown) to handle setting up all of my dom0 interfaces (bonding, vlans, and bridges), leaving Xen responsible for adding guests to the right bridges and that's it. Once I've got a finalized and functional configuration, I'm more than happy to write it up and submit things back.
