Thanks for the fast reply, DomU has been running for more than one
hour and still not reachable from outside. If I perform a tcpdump of
interface bnx1 I also see:

16:31:12.017369 STP 802.1w, Rapid STP, Flags [Forward], bridge-id
8000.20:fd:f1:77:b2:77.8012, length 47
16:31:14.017483 STP 802.1w, Rapid STP, Flags [Forward], bridge-id
8000.20:fd:f1:77:b2:77.8012, length 47
16:31:16.017663 STP 802.1w, Rapid STP, Flags [Forward], bridge-id
8000.20:fd:f1:77:b2:77.8012, length 47
16:31:18.017706 STP 802.1w, Rapid STP, Flags [Forward], bridge-id
8000.20:fd:f1:77:b2:77.8012, length 4

All the time, but it seems to have no effect.
