there is information about this on the shorewall website:
http://www.shorewall.net/XenMyWay.html, though it's extremely
complicated and likely more than you need. It got me started
though. Combined with pciback(see Xen wiki for info) to move my
red-zone interface to my domU firewall, it works pretty well. I have
WAN <- physical eth0 moved to domU (firewall) with pciback
eth1 in firewall domU 192.168.2.1<- DMZ domUs (mail, web, etc)
eth2 in f/w domU 192.168.1.1<- dom0 fileserver and LAN
The whole thing is a little dodgy, and seems kind of fragile. It
doesn't always work well on a reboot, as I don't seem to have the
interfaces coming up in the right order, but it does work.
