Your earlier explanation looks a bit like you think your packets somehow "go thru" your Dom0 and rely on the network settings on it. That's not the case. Once the initial bridge is setup you can use *any* IP number on the DomU that you like, there is no connection to the IP numbers that are configured for the Dom0. In other words, if you have a router with 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.2.1 and a Dom0 with 192.168.1.2 and a DomU with 192.168.2.2 you can reach that router from both with the standard (older) xen bridging that comes with CentOS 5. No problem. Also, you do not need any Iptables rules. I think you needed nothing to change in your networking setup. I have been using static IP addresses with CentOS 5/5.1 before upgrading to Xen 3.2 and they worked just fine. The only problems I had (and still have) were with DHCP.
