If my experience with VirtualBox is anything to go by, I wouldn't bother
trying to use 'ping' as a diagnostic tool, as ICMP didn't appear to be
handled correctly by the virtual network interfaces.  Instead, simply using
telnet was more than adequate.

Again, if Xen is anything like VirtualBox, then I think what you need are
two network interfaces.  One is a bridge, which is what you appear to have
already, which allows you to get to the outside world.  The other is,
in VirtualBox parlance, a host-only interface, which allows guest -> host
communication and vice versa (see 
https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch06.html#network_hostonly).

Matt.
