Have you configured Xen to run in routing mode for this? You
need to configure your xend-config to use the network-route script and not the network-bridge
script which is enabled by default.
Ethereal should work to sniff packets on the virtual interfaces
in Dom0.

Subject: [Xen-users] IP Forwarding in Dom0?
It
appears that packets sent from my PV guest, which is a virtual router running
over a split driver virtual interface, are not getting forwarded by the dom0
linux. I have enabled the value in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward. Is there something more that
needs to be done for a xen dom0 to enable forwarding? Also, is
there a packet sniffer that will work with linux dom0 virtual interfaces?
Thanks.
