Xen networking setup

[Shakthi Kannan]

Hi,

I need some clarification on Xen networking bridged setup.

I have a system that uses eth1 for Internet connectivity,
/etc/network/interfaces (for example):

iface eth1 inet static
  address 192.168.1.210
  netmask 255.255.255.0
  gateway 192.168.1.1
auto eth1

The documentation here:
http://www.bddebian.com/~wiki/microkernel/mach/gnumach/ports/xen/networking_configuration/

says "Comment out everything referencing your physical devices." for
/etc/network/interfaces.

1. So, if I comment eth1, how does adding something like:

auto br0
iface br0 inet static
    bridge_ports regex (eth|vif).* noregex
    address 192.168.10.60
    netmask 255.255.255.0

enable access to the Internet through eth1?.

2. Should we add anything to 'vif' in /etc/xen/hurd?

Thanks!

SK
