Hi everyone, I'm a very newbie of Open vSwitch user, recently, I'm working on some research about Open vSwitch, and I got some questions.
here is the description of my system setup: CentOS 5.6 Final (x86_64) with Xen Support (through: yum groupinstall "Virtualization") Open vSwitch v1.1.1 (downlaod from http://openvswitch.org/, not pull from the git tree) and my first simple goal is to make Domain-0's eth0(fake) connect to the network, and, if it is correct, it should be controlled by OVS. then I do some works as follow... I followed the document "INSTALL.Linux" step by step, everything seems work fine. and I can success make Domain-0 to be connected to the network, tested by the command "add-port, del-port", but here comes up some question... hope you can help me to answer these questions: after the step " ovs-vsctl add-br vbr0 " (virtual bridge name: vbr0) * first question * if I want to make Domain-0 link to be connected, which port should I attach to the virtual bridge... eth0? or peth0? * second question * do I need to attach "vif0.0" to the virtual bridge "vbr0"? (vif0.0 -> interface of Domain0's eth0) or there is no need to do so, just attach eth0 / peth0? * third question * how can I attach "vif1.0" to "vbr0" before Domain-1 is been created? * forth question * with KVM support, INSTALL.KVM says that need to add scripts ovs-ifup / ovs-ifdown, then, with XEN support system, do we need to write scripts for ifup / ifdown commands? thanks for the help Best regards
