1 interface 2 ip?

[twtandigi.com.my]

How can i bind 2 ipaddress to 1 interface?
Have anyone done this before?
what are the steps needed to do for it to work

multiplexing. that's the way.

# vi /etc/rc.config.d/netconf:

INTERFACE_NAME[3]=lan0:0
IP_ADDRESS[3]=128.4.1.1
SUBNET_MASK[3]=255.255.0.0

INTERFACE_NAME[3]=lan0:1
IP_ADDRESS[3]=128.4.1.2
SUBNET_MASK[3]=255.255.0.0

# /sbin/init.d/net stop
# /sbin/init.d/net start

take note that the above is an example. do let me know the result.

regards.

hi

for 11i use the ifconfig commands

ifconfig lan0:1 192.168.100.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

will make the interface running....
to make the changes permanent, put the following entries in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf

IP_ADDRESS[1]=192.168.100.1
SUBNET_MASK[1]=255.255.255.0
INTERFACE_NAME[1]=lan0:1
BROADCAST_ADDRESS[1]=192.168.100.255
INTERFACE_STATE[1]=up


U can do it through sam also...
sam --> networking and communications -->Network interface cards -->select lan0 --> actions --> add ip logical interface.

In 10.x you need to install a patch for the same. as far as i remember it is PHCO12492 and it adds a command ifalias...

with best wishes

You can do it with ifconfig also:

# ifconfig lan0:1 UP

Check whether it is working fine and ofcourse to make the changes permanent follow Loo's method.

Hope that helps.
