If the issue is usability of listing 1024 netdevices, i can think of many ways to resolve it. One way we can resolve the listing is with a simple tag to the netdev struct i could say "list netdevices for guest 0-10" etc etc.
This would be a useful feature, not only for virtualization. I've seen some boxes with thousands of net devices (mostly ppp, but also some ATM). It would be nice to be able to assign a tag to an arbitrary set of devices.
Does the network namespace stuff help with any of this? -- James Chapman Katalix Systems Ltd http://www.katalix.com Catalysts for your Embedded Linux software development - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
