Re: [Xen-users] network interface and vlans

["Janko Harej" <janko.harej@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

thanks - now i've seen my error - wrong configuration 

instead of 

vif=[ 'mac=00:16:3e:71:31:a2,bridge=xenbr3' ]

I had

vif=[ 'mac=00:16:3e:71:31:a2' , 'bridge=xenbr8' ]

so I got two interfaces one with fixed mac but not working because it was not linked to bridge and one with everythime new mac addreess but linked to right address

Thanks for suggestions

bye

Do you have defined fixed mac-Addresses? Otherwise your NIC gets
everytime a new hardware address and your udev especially the Suse ones
get confused.
vif = [ 'mac=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx,bridge=xx' ]

Ok I see you have Suse.

if you have a fixed mac-address than you can specify an udev rule to
bind the address to an interface:
Add  in /etc/udev/rules.d/30-net_persistent_names.rules:

SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION="" SYSFS{address}=="00:60:dd:47:80:dc",
IMPORT="/lib/udev/rename_netiface %k eth0"
