I have a Debian Squeeze Dom0 with two DomU's already configured using the xen network bridge scripts (with public ip's) works fine.

I now want to setup "eth1" on both DomU's in routed mode with private ip ranges (no external access required on this interface). How do I set this up on the Dom0 without affecting the existing bridge setup?

Simplest method was to add a bridged interface on the dom0 not bound to any physical interfaces like so: auto br0 iface br0 inet static bridge_ports none bridge_maxwait 0 address xx.xx.xx.xx netmask xx.xx.xx.xx -- /etc/init.d/networking restart so br0 exists. then on xen config file for each domU append: ,'mac=xxxxxx,bridge=br0' within the existing vif definition (not as an additional vif = line) After that boot domU configure eth1 within same internal ip range as br0 on the dom0. – Rob Aug 7 '12 at 23:49
