[Xen-users] Xen with 'Routing' scripts

[Roland Paterson-Jones <roland@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

I had a brief look at the routing scripts in /etc/xen/scripts. 
Essentially the main script turns on ip forwarding in dom-0, and the 
dom-U vif script seems to configure a 169.254.1.0 address for each vif 
(auto-configure address, I think), then enable proxy ARP on the vif.
Some questions: How do remote machines pick up routing information for 
the dom-U's? Do I have to run a routing protocol in dom-0 (maybe with 
zebra) so that remote machines can 'see' the dom-U's?
Could someone maybe explain the details of the ifconfig <vif> 
169.254.1.0 ... and what the proxy ARP stuff does?
Thanks
Roland
