 DaveHill (talk) (talk) 21:50, 6 October 2018 (UTC)Checking whether/how html formatting renders because I want to correct an error in the section below on setting up xenbridge in the Xen Project Beginners Guide.

This file is very simple. Each stanza represents a single interface. Breaking it down “auto eth0” means that eth0 will be configured when ifup -a is run (which is run a boot time) what this means is that the interface will automatically be started/stopped for you. “iface eth0” then describes the interface itself, in this case it merely specifies that it should be configured by DHCP - we are going to assume that you have DHCP running on your network for this guide. If you are using static addressing you probably know how to set that up. We are going to edit this file so it resembles such:

    auto lo
    iface lo inet loopback

    auto eth0
    iface eth0 inet dhcp
    
    auto xenbr0
    iface xenbr0 inet dhcp
        bridge_ports eth0

 DaveHill (talk) (talk) 21:50, 6 October 2018 (UTC):The eth0 lines in the file are

   auto eth0
   iface eth0 inet dhcp

but should be

   auto eth0
   iface eth0 inet manual

(as per the Important Note! here:https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Network_Configuration_Examples_(Xen_4.1%2B) and my own experience).
