Hello everyone,

Apologies for re-posting this, I'd originally posted this in OpenSolaris-help 
and then realized I'd picked the wrong forum, this one seems more appropriate.

I've just installed SXDE 1/08 as my domU. When I boot into the xVM option, my 
dom0 has network connectivity and is able to connect to the outside world. 
However, the domUs (also Solaris, 79a or 89b) I create are unable to do so.

After searching around, it seems the problem is that dom0 doesn't create a 
bridge, xbr0. After reading several posts/threads on this topic, I'm under the 
impression that it needs to create a bridged network to enable domUs to be able 
to communicate on the network.

On dom0, the config/default-nic property is set to bnx.

Here's the output of 'ifconfig -a' on my dom0.

ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849 mtu 8232 index 1
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
bnx0: flags=201000843 mtu 1500 index 4
inet 1xx.xx.207.212 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 142.58.207.255
bnx1: flags=201000802 mtu 1500 index 2
inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0
bnx2: flags=201000802 mtu 1500 index 3
inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0
lo0: flags=2002000849 mtu 8252 index 1
inet6 ::1/128


How do I enable bridging in dom0 and/or get networking connectivity in my 
domUs? I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong and guide me in 
the right direction.

Thanks for reading this,
Viren
