Hi James,

Looks like eth2 is missing.
Hrm ...
ifconfig eth2 eth2: error fetching interface information: Device not found
Yes it sounds like the driver has not been loaded, what kind of card is this?
It's an "Intel Corporation 82541PI Gigabit Ethernet Controller" using the e1000 driver, modinfo e1000 | grep ^version version: 8.0.6-NAPI lsmod | grep e1000 e1000 191684 0 grep eth2 /etc/modprobe.conf.local alias eth2 e1000
As I muddle through this setup, I'm not at all certain that Bridge/VLAN in Dom0 is the right approach here. :-/ Thoughts?
So, if I'm reading this right, you're not connecting the VLAN trunk to a switch?
That's correct ... not on this setup. Just trying to isolate NAS traffic between domUs
If you only want to allow domU's to talk to each other, and maybe the host, you don't want VLANs at all. You just need a private bridge with no initial ports. Just remove vlan2 from your BRIDGE_PORTS setting on your existing bridge.
An "aha!" moment! Thanks.
If you want, you could even set an IP address on the bridge so that dom0 would also have access to the network. I sometimes even run a DHCP server on the bridge to simplify the configuration of any domUs on it.
So, for ifcfg-brTEST:
IPADDR='10.1.1.1/24' BRIDGE='yes' BRIDGE_PORTS='' BRIDGE_FORWARDDELAY='0' BRIDGE_STP='off' BOOTPROTO='static' STARTMODE='auto'
Iiuc, then, in this config *NO* BRIDGE_PORT assigned? Clearly not to a real ethX interface, but not even a dummy-net intfc required? Thanks again! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-virtual+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-virtual+help@opensuse.org
