My bonded/bridged host configuration looks like this. You will have to figure out the CentOS equivalents. # The primary network interface iface eth0 inet manual iface eth1 inet manual # eth0 & eth1 form bond0 for x.x.x.0/25 subnet auto bond0 iface bond0 inet static bond_miimon 100 bond_mode active-backup bond_downdelay 200 bond_updelay 200 address x.x.x.35 netmask 255.255.255.128 network x.x.x.0 post-up ifenslave bond0 eth0 eth1 pre-down ifenslave -d bond0 eth0 eth1 auto br0 iface br0 inet static bridge_ports bond0 address x.x.x.35 netmask 255.255.255.128 network x.x.x.0 gateway x.x.x.126 I then configured the virtual interface for each virtual machine like this: <interface type='bridge'> <mac address='xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx'/> <source bridge='br0'/> <model type='virtio'/> </interface> and configured each machine using regular 'eth0'. Don't forget to make sure forwarding is turned on and that your firewall on the host machine allows FORWARD chain packets to the bridged interface. -- Benjamin Franz _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
