    i have spent the last 5 hours searching for some
    post/blog/experience on
    VDE Xen combo. but to no avail.

    VDE seems to be popular with KVM and other non virtualized
    environments
    . Are there ways to use it with Xen, i mean, transparently connect a
    set of DomUs  in different physical hosts in different networks , to
    form one virtual network?

    If this cannot be done at Dom0 side, it always can be done at the DomU
    side, where the domu plugs into a vde switch. But are there any
    ballpark
    stats on the performance drops?

    to put things in a nut shell, I am looking for some decent solution
    (with acceptable levels of performance loss) to form a virtual network
    of DomUs that are spread across physical machines, across physical
    networks (some behind nats/firewalls).
    is vlan the way to go?how?

    thanks
