If it's acceptable to interpret loss of the external link as complete loss of connectivity, then it would be straightforward to extend the Xen inter-domain protocol to support this. It seems likely that the same is also true for LDoms. Adding an RFE to ask for this would be appropriate. _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
