Re: Bridging with WLAN interface

That's an option but introducing a local DHCPd is not really a good solution.
Correct, but you were mentioning a dhcpd for your Win domU, so I took it as a possible solution.
Is there any way to statically add IPs to xvif interfaces?
I tried with
vif = [ 'type=ioemu, bridge=bridge0, mac=00:00:00:ff:fe:01 ip=192.168.0.1' ]

But this does not work, at least not when running Windows as DomU.
I don't think it will. What really matters is the interface on the domU side, and xvif is the other end point of the domU interface, like some kind of tun(4) (I am not familiar with xennet back- and front-end yet, so maybe I am mistaken here).

Setting up the xvif IP would be of no use. One option would be to configure xennet* right inside the domU, through /etc/ifconfig.xennet*.
