Hi Monty, ifcfg-eth0 BOOTPROTO=static Rename device ifcfg-eth0:1 to ifcfg-eth0:0 Device=eth0:0 NM_CONTROLLED=no (NetworkManager is mostly conflicting) kind regards, Ronno ________________________________________ From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Monty wig [montywig@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, March 01, 2011 18:27 To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: Multiple IPs to a single NIC Experts, I am trying to assign multiple IP address to a machine with a single NIC and I did follow the instructions from RH. Below are my network files from /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts... ifcfg-eth0 ============ DEVICE=eth0 NM_CONTROLLED=yes ONBOOT=yes HWADDR=00:1C:25:70:06:89 TYPE=Ethernet BOOTPROTO=none DEFROUTE=yes PEERDNS=no IPADDR=192.168.1.103 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 PEERROUTES=yes IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=yes IPV6INIT=no NAME="System eth0" USERCTL=no ifcfg-eth0:1 ============== DEVICE=eth0:1 ONPARENT=yes BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=192.168.1.119 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 TYPE=Ethernet IPV6INIT=no USERCTL=no Now when I try to bring up the NIC using "ifup eth0:1" - It brings eth0:1 up but brings down eth0. Basically it brings only one of them at a time and no matter which IP is up, "ip addr show" output shows only eth0 even if IP of eth0:1 is up!! I am on RH6...Has anyone seen this behavior?
