	No, not really. "dummy0" is a dummy device, that I use for my
testing network:

dummy0    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr FA:76:8E:02:0A:EC
          inet addr:192.168.20.1  Bcast:192.168.20.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::f876:8eff:fe02:aec/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:5 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:6 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:378 (378.0 b)  TX bytes:468 (468.0 b)

	The idea is to have a "virtual network" using only this virtual
device, with different IP addressing from the real NICs. I'd like the Xen
network to remain "inside" the dom0, not seen at all from the rest of hosts
in the real networks.

	(for the record, I had tried your suggestion before, with the same
results :-/)
