Just observed the phenomenon if not designate it as e1000, in L1, we will not have eth0 visible, therefore bridge on it won't work. As long as we designate vif to e1000, it works. But this is not a problem in our test environment in which we don't use Debian as nested Dom0.

OK, will use this approach to walk around and for the consideration of future test scope scaling. > > Thanks, > Ian.
