Re: [Xen-users] Yet another question about multiple NICs



Ok now I got the point...

When it fails to connect, can you still ping the domain-0 or is it
really nothing then?
The domain-0 should be always at least reachable with your setup and
should then show up in ip neigh on the dom-1 (and if the dom-1 doesn't
reach anything else, it will be the only valid entry).
I think there should be some "FAILED" entries when a machine cannot
connect to the network, that's why I asked explicitly again.
If there are even no FAILED entries I think it even did not ask, which
means that some routes or address settings must be wrong.

Regards,
Felix
