Xen Doc Day: Guide To Setting Up Bridging On CentOS 6 / 7
In honor of Xen Doc Day, I’ve put up some basic HOWTOs for setting up bridging on CentOS 6 and 7. I’m far from an expert, so I’d appreciate any feedback.
The howtos can be found here:

If you’d like to extend that a little bit, here’s example configs on how to do LACP and vlan tagging on c6:
host network-scripts # cat ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes USEERCTL=no BOOTPROTO=none IPV6INIT=no MTU00
MASTER=bond0
SLAVE=yes
host network-scripts # cat ifcfg-eth1
DEVICE=eth1
ONBOOT=yes USEERCTL=no BOOTPROTO=none IPV6INIT=no MTU00
MASTER=bond0
SLAVE=yes
host network-scripts # cat ifcfg-bond0
DEVICE=bond0
ONBOOT=yes USEERCTL=no BOOTPROTO=none IPV6INIT=no BONDING_OPTS=”miimon0 mode
Hey Nathan,
Thanks for the feedback. I meant the HOWTOs to be for a super-basic setup. I presume someone who wants vlans and what-not can read the full RHEL 6 / 7 documentation (which I linked to from the parent document, https://wiki.CentOS.org/HowTos/Xen/Xen4QuickStart.
If you want to add a new wiki page with your suggested setup, and link to it from the main page, that would be good as well.
Ah, thanks — missed that one when copy-and-pasting from my testing scripts. :-)
Peace,
-George
