loopback interface

[Mulder_1]

I need to create a loopback interface urgently
LO1.

Can anyone please let me how to do it ?

TCPIP> sh int
Packets
Interface IP_Addr Network mask Receive Send MTU

IE0 192.168.25.10 255.255.255.0 84469 18836 1500
IE1 145.224.1.57 255.255.255.128 3770 2215 1500
LO0 127.0.0.1 255.0.0.0 0 0 4096
TCPIP>

Thanks

Have no experience with that but is this ok ?

$ ifconfig lo0 alias xxx
where xxx is an IP name setup in the host table.

I tried it and it seems to work (7.3, ucx 5.3 eco 2)

In order to have this command (and ping and others), first do

$ @sys$startup:tcpip$define_commands

I need to create a second LO1 interface,making use of the LO0 will not do.

Thanks
