I'm trying to configure Fedora 7 to support a 802.1q trunk in dom0 using https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-xen/2007-June/msg00008.html and http://watzmann.net/blog/index.php/2007/04/27/networking_with_kvm_and_lib... for clues. Since the network-bridge script doesn't seem capable of doing to VLAN work and I prefer the normal OS scripts, I have the following in xend-config.sxp: (network-script /bin/true) (vif-script /bin/true) It seems that the Fedora goal is to take the original name for an interface, in this case eth0.6 and make that a bridge and move its guts to something like peth0.6. I don't wanna be deprecated so I tried to play along and setup the ifcfg files like so: [root@helix network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-eth0 # Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5704 Gigabit Ethernet DEVICE=eth0 MTU=1504 BOOTPROTO=dhcp ONBOOT=yes [root@helix network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-vlan6br DEVICE=eth0.6 TYPE=Bridge BOOTPROTO=static ONBOOT=yes IPADDR=19.27.25.134 NETMASK=255.255.255.192 NETWORK=19.27.25.128 BROADCAST=19.27.25.191 [root@helix network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-vlan6phy DEVICE=peth0.6 BRIDGE=eth0.6 VLAN=yes ONBOOT=yes BOOTPROTO=none But, this creates a bridge under both names and no vlan interface [root@helix ~]# brctl show bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces eth0.6 8000.000000000000 no peth0.6 8000.000000000000 no [root@helix network-scripts]# ls /proc/net/vlan ls: cannot access /proc/net/vlan: No such file or directory I'll dissect the ifup scripts when I get a second, but am I swimming upstream or just making a dumb mistake somewhere? -- Dale Bewley - Unix Administrator - Shields Library - UC Davis GPG: 0xB098A0F3 0D5A 9AEB 43F4 F84C 7EFD 1753 064D 2583 B098 A0F3
