I have a linux guest using hipersockets on chpid 0xED. I am not able to ping from this guest to other guests which are on chpid 0xEC. I used yast to configure and my ifconfig shows the interface as active.
If the addresses you show above are correct, then the guests are on two different unconnected network segments and should not respond unless there is some device acting as a bridge or router between the two segments, regardless of VLAN status. It's exactly like expecting two hosts connected to different hubs to respond to each other -- there's got to be a path connecting the two somewhere. This is no different than how any other physical network segments work. A hipersocket is a single physical transport domain -- it's a big fast hub that is responsible for forwarding physical frames presented to it. The next layer up (layer 2) worries about the structure of the frame and things like VLAN tags. If you choose to have those frames contain VLAN tags and the hosts know to expect VLAN tags, then you get VLANs. If not, then you get one big broadcast domain and everyone sees everything. The physical transport doesn't care about the content of the frames, just that they checksum correctly and get on and off the wire w/o errors. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
