How To Enable Networking In Xen Guests On Hetzner's New EQ Servers (Debian Lenny) This tutorial shows how you can enable networking in Xen guests (domU) on Hetzner's new EQ servers. With the new EQ servers, you can get up to three additional IPs that are in the same subnet as the server's main IP. The problem is that these additional IPs are bound to the MAC address of the host system (dom0) - Hetzner's routers will dump IP packets if they come from an unknown MAC address. This means we cannot use Xen's bridged mode, but must switch to Xen's routed mode where the host system (dom0) acts as the gateway for the guests.

hello my friend i have a dedicated on hetzner i have same problem with virtualbox bridget conection i have 2 virtualbox work only in nat mode nat mode is bad . statics ip can you help me please with a tutorial for virtualbox in hetzner thank you ..
thank you, after hours of trying to set it all up it finally worked!
I just bought a EX4 root server from Hetzner[1] and you can ask for additional IPs with different MAC for each one so this tutorial does not apply anymore.
Thanks for your work,
Bye

Thanks for this - this was invaluable to me when setting up a xen server on 4.2... Do you have any tips for 4.6? I don't believe network-bridge or network-route are supported any more.
Hello,
I have installed Xen4Centos on Centos7 on hetzner server, having single NIC card with bridged network and have two VMs on that.
In one VM, I want to add two static IP one for webserver and one for mail server.
So I have created IP alias in guest VM, it was created but it was not pinging from outside public network or from the host.
So if you have any idea on how to add second IP in the guest VM then please let me know.
I have searched on Google but most of the tutorials had given example for one IP only.
Thanks,
Nishit Shah
