Re: [Xen-users] VLAN configuration



Hi Marc,

my /etc/network/interface is:
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
       address 192.168.A.B
       netmask 255.255.255.0
       gateway 192.168.A.C


before to launch /etc/xen/scripts/vlan-network-bridge, I manually: ifconfig eth0 up


Thanks laurent.

Hi Lauranet,

this is my grub config:

title            Xen 3.0.4 / XenLinux 2.6
root            (hd0,0)
kernel          /xen.gz  dom0_mem=384000
module /vmlinuz-2.6-xen0 root=/dev/mapper/vg00-lv00 ro max_loop=255
module          /initrd.img-2.6.16.33-xen0

as you see, I have 256 loop devices. If changing this don't solve you problem sent me your /etc/init.d/interfaces


Regards,

Marc

Hi Marc, and thanks a lot.

It's better now, but still strange:

Link veth1 is missing. <============= STRANGE This may be because you have reached the limit of the number of interfaces that the loopback driver supports. If the loopback driver is a module, you may raise this limit by passing it as a parameter (nloopbacks=<N>); if the driver is compiled statically into the kernel, then you may set the parameter
using loopback.nloopbacks=<N> on the domain 0 kernel command line.

Apparently, il seems to deal with: loopback
But I put:  loop max_loop=64 in /etc/modules

Does I have to include loopback.nloopbacks in my grub.conf
like:

title Xen 3.0.3-1-i386-pae / Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.18-4-xen-686
root            (hd0,0)
kernel /xen-3.0.3-1-i386-pae.gz dom0_mem=200000 loopback.nloopbacks=64
module          /vmlinuz-2.6.18-4-xen-686 root=/dev/md2 ro console=tty0
module          /initrd.img-2.6.18-4-xen-686
savedefault

I don't know howmuch nloopback I have to put,
is 64 ok ?

It's dangerous to deal with kernel stuff, the machine is not in the same area....

Thanks. Laurent.

Hi Laurent,

has you load the vlan kernel module?

# lsmod | grep 8021q

if not :

# modprobe 8021q

I hope it will help you.

Hi to the ML.

I'm new to VLAN configuration, and combining it to XEN is a bit difficult.

I want to use VLAN because it's possible to "arping" from a domU to an other, and VLAN looks like; the only solution to prevent that. May be I'm wrong if someone got a solution, I may be interrested. I've also tryed ebtables, but nothing to prevent arp question: who-as IP¨.

The configuration I need is:
 -------------
 |   domU      |
-| -[ dom1 ]-  |-
| -[ dom2 ]-  |
 -------------

I want dom1 and dom2 to use eth0 and eth1, with vlan interface.

I've tryed http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2007-03/msg00988.html configuration, but I have the following error:

WARNING: Could not open /proc/net/vlan/config. Maybe you need to load the 8021q module, or maybe you are not using PROCFS?? Set name-type for VLAN subsystem. Should be visible in /proc/net/vlan/config
ERROR: trying to add VLAN #2 to IF -:eth0:-  error: Invalid argument
ERROR: trying to add VLAN #3 to IF -:eth0:-  error: Invalid argument

The machine run on Debian Etch and the vlan package is intalled.

If you have some ideas, I'm stuck!!!
Thanks.


Laurent.
