I don't understand what you mean by this. I ran the command but saw nothing that helped me understand why my system looks so different from all the stuff I've read. > > You are building a bridge with peth0 as phisical nic which was eth0 > before xen was installed in your server. I knew peth0 was the real nic, but I expected to see a bridge named xenbr0, not eth0. I also expected to see a vifX.Y where X was the domID as reported by "xm list" and Y was the number of the interface as it appeared in the domain itself. Totally confused about what various virtual parts exist, and how they fit together.
