Hi Masood,

This is how the Host is setup

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto br0
iface br0 inet static
       bridge_ports eth0
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_maxwait 0
        bridge_fd 0

        address 192.168.0.50
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        network 192.168.0.0
        broadcast 192.168.0.255
        gateway 192.168.0.1
        dns-nameservers 192.168.0.1

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual


-Kevin
