How to assign ip to virtual machine on sofllayer?
I using xen for virtual machines,and i know how to install one and how to install os into it.But since one of methods to install it is to use web mirror,that means internet connection on vm need to work after setting ip and nameservers.I know which gateway and nameservers are needed.
Do i need to,to make it work,first remove ip which i want to assign from host machine?Or is it something else?

You need to first make sure you have a static IP block that is routed to your VLAN (see http://knowledgelayer.softlayer.com/...able+IP+blocks under the "Portable IP Block" section) - you can open up a support ticket with them for help/info on that. When you have that new subnet, there will be a gateway address. You'll need a public subnet to get to the world, and a private subnet to get to their dns servers (or you can use the dns servers at OpenDNS also)

Actually i am not on softlayer directly,i am on softlayer resseler and they dont give support for vm's at all.All i want is to use one ip for xen guest machine(seems os cannot be installed if there is not ip on beggining which can connect to internet,since mirror is requied)
I think i need to brigde somehow virtual network to desired ip adress,i just don't know how.

Actually i think portable ip block is not needed,that is required only for hyper-vm while this is xen.
