While we're on the subject, I'm still having a massive headache with using my

LAN) successfully bridged for my VMs run by Xen. I've heard a lot of talk about 
Open vSwitch on the list, I'm sure I can find info about it on the net, but can 
someone give me some hard facts about its performance, especially with regard 
to virtualization and my particular use case? Thanks in advance!
You don't need to use OpenVSwitch. You can use just the bridging capabilities of the Linux kernel (brctrl)

Cheers
