You can instruct Xen to use these scripts by -editing your /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp file and specifying these scripts as -the default network-script and vif-script. - -For example, here are the entries in my xend-config.sxp file: - - (network-script 'network-openvswitch netdev=eth2 bridge=ovs0') - - (vif-script 'vif-openvswitch bridge=ovs0') - -If your network interface card and attached network switch support VLAN -tagged traffic, you can place virtual machines within a seperate VLAN by -appending a '.' and the VLAN tag number you wish the domain to use. For -example, to have all domains default to VLAN 2 you can do the following: - - (vif-script 'vif-openvswitch bridge=ovs0.2') - -You can also specify tagged traffic in the domain configuration file. - -If you are hosting a hardware virtualized domain understand that the -/etc/xen/scripts/qemu-ifup script is run instead of the vif-script specified -in the xend-config.sxp file. You'll need to edit this file to add the port -to the vswitch instead of using the brctl (unless of course you are using -the appropriate kernel module to control the vswitch using brctl.) Here is -a snippet from my qemu-ifup to handle hardware virtualized ports: - - if lsmod | grep -c openvswitch_mod 1> /dev/null && ! lsmod | grep -c brcompat_mod 1> /dev/null - then - ovs-vsctl -- --may-exist add-port $bridge $1 - else - brctl addif $bridge $1 || true - fi - -This doesn't handle tagged traffic. I'll leave that as an exercise for you. - -Enjoy. |
