[SLE] assigning multiplie IPs to same interface
I'm running 6.3. How can I assign multiple IP numbers to the same interface? I looked a man ifconfig but nothing jumped out at me. IFCONFIG_0="192.168.0.1 broadcast 192.168.0.255 netmask 255.255.255.0 up" I'd like that machine to also respond as 192.168.0.2, for example.

IP aliasing is the thing you need - it has to be enabled in the kernel if it is, the setup eth0:0 as 192.168.0.2 On Thu, 01 Jun 2000, Bill Moseley wrote:

I'm using just the yast installed kernel from the distribution. I'm going to assume it's not in my kernel, but I also assume that I can use the ip_alias module. But it's not on my machine. Anyone know where to download it? Any tricks to building the module? BTW - I searched the SuSE htdig archives for ip_alias, and it says 4 results, but doesn't show them. I would expect to find something on this at the SuSE site.

It should be if you have one regular kernels. I've never had to do more than ifconfig eth0:0 192.168.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 up. I believe you can go in to YaST and just add an eth0:0 interface to make it permanent (but I don't use YaST much so don't take my word for it).

Be sure you have IP aliasing compiled into your kernel. This is the
relevant section of /etc/rc.config I use. The eth0 interface has
three IP addresses.

I'm running 6.3.
How can I assign multiple IP numbers to the same interface? I looked a man ifconfig but nothing jumped out at me.
IFCONFIG_0="192.168.0.1 broadcast 192.168.0.255 netmask 255.255.255.0 up"
I'd like that machine to also respond as 192.168.0.2, for example.
