I just posted about this issue to comp.os.linux.networking, but it occurs to me that this may be a UML issue, and not a general networking issue.
Essentially, I'm trying the following: 1) using a virtual bridge on the host to wire up all the guests to the physical ethernet directly. 2) I have two blocks of IP addresses, in different subnets. 3) I have a guest happily configured to use a single IP address from subnet X. Now, when I tried adding another IP address to the same guest (from subnet Y), no traffic would pass to that interface. I tried both an alias inside the guest and using separate tuntap devices; neither worked... :( Any hints/tips as to what might be wrong, or how to debug this further? I've tried pinging from the host to the new ip on the guest, and the ICMP packets are nowhere to be found. (according to tcpdump.) I do see 802.1d config packets repeating over and over, which makes me think something lower-layer is not hooked up correctly. Thanks in advance for any help you can give, - majere ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
