[xen-discuss] Help with winxp guest and networking

[Christian Meunier]

Hi all,

I tried to figure this out by myself without much luck...
I got Nevada b78 and i recently installed winxp as a guest domain, it works 
quite ok but i cant figure out how to make the network working.

I got only one physical network interface ( bnx0 ) connected using 192.168.99.2 
as IP. I would like the winxp guest to use the same IP.

1) How should i setup the winxp network card ?
2) On the solaris end, what do i need to do to make this work ? Should i do 
something with the vnic900 ?

I already tried a few variation but no luck so far...
Few infos:

-bash-3.2# dladm show-link
bnx1            type: non-vlan  mtu: 1500       device: bnx1
bnx0            type: non-vlan  mtu: 1500       device: bnx0
vnic900         type: non-vlan  mtu: 1500       device: vnic900

-bash-3.2# ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 
index 1
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000 
bnx0: flags=201004843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DHCP,IPv4,CoS> mtu 1500 
index 2
        inet 192.168.99.2 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.99.255
        ether 0:1c:23:d7:1d:9e 
lo0: flags=2002000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252 
index 1
        inet6 ::1/128

A dump xml from virsh shows for the network interface:
&lt;interface type='bridge'>
    &lt;source bridge='bnx0'/>
    &lt;mac address='00:16:3e:64:b5:b9'/>
&lt;/interface>

Also, may be it's related somehow, eveytime i check the status of the winxp 
guest, it says "Blocked" but i can access it just fine with VNC....

Thanks in advance for your help/time !
