I'm just starting on
virtualization with Citrix XenServer and I would really appreciate if anyone
could help me. First of all, sorry if I couldn't find an answer on forum, but
I've already tried hard.
I'm facing some problems regarding tcp sniffing on a debian lenny virtual
server on citrix xenserver 5.5.0 installed on a Dell server HW. I have the
server configured with two virtual interfaces, where one of them is receiving a
mirrored traffic from an extreme switch. When trying tcpdump directly on
xenserver on that interface I can see the full traffic on both xenbr or eth
interfaces. Trying tcpdump on the virtual server I can only get UDP traffic
(netbios...). I have already tried the procedure described on http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX121729
and others many times, however it is definitely not working. When I try the
same procedure on HP or IBM server, I can't even get tcpdump working on the
citrix xenserver shell. Am I missing something here?
Did you try the Citrix XenServer message forums at http://forums.citrix.com/category.jspa?categoryID=101?
The forums you are on are for the open source Xen virtualization solutions.
Thanks.
