I don't know much about VMs and nothing about xenserver, so beware of free advice. Here are three suggestions off the top of my head.
1. Would it be possible to have NTPD broadcast on both networks, x.x.75.x and x.x.75.x? 2. Under Windows it appears to be possible to bridge connections on a dual homed host. Can xenserver bridge the two networks 75 and 69? 3. In a book on Java and networking the author offered an example of a "repeater" written in Java. All the program did, as I recall, was listen on one interface and retransmit some packets to another interface. I tried it, and it worked. I could try to find that book again, if it would help. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Thursday, December 12, 2013 11:09 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ntp:questions] NTP to multiple networks via one interface. Hi, We have a xenserver host. We manage it via an interface on x.x.75.x which is the only network that is actually plumbed in on the host. It has other interfaces but they are virtualised by xen and don't have IP's. We have several VM's on this host on the same x.x.75.x network so we have set the xenserver to broadcast ntp (it syncs from network switches) and the VM's to be broadcast clients . NTP is working ok in this scenario. However we've added a new network to xenserver on x.x.69.x but VM's on this network don't receive the NTP broadcast packets as they don't have an interface on the x.x.75 network. Is there any way to get the NTP packets to all VM's without dual homing either the xenserver or the VM's.
