It's supported just as much as the (preferred) "ip addr add..." is, so long as
you keep in mind that netfilter doesn't use anything other than the "real"
name of the interface, eg: eth0, not eth0:1
However, this makes no difference to your netfilter rules - all the packets
are really coming in on eth0 anyway, even if ifconfig decided to label the
second IP address eth0:1
