Hi Lonnie. Good question. I have a site with two customers sharing the same network and telephony infrastructure. The data network is segregated for the two customers but there is a single shared printer on one of the networks. The customer on the other network is having problems with the printer and their current IT provider has said that because the driver is so crap, the printer needs to be on the same network (Sigh!) Also this network has a number of statically assigned devices.
I must admit that as I write this, I'm not sure this is going to solve the problem. So ridiculous! Thanks guys though for the info.

A comment, when adding network commands to rc.elocal, it is best to use 'ip' (iproute2) instead of 'ifconfig' (busybox). So, if for some reason you want to add 192.168.99.1/32 to eth1, simply: -- ip addr add 192.168.99.1/32 dev eth1 -- If for some reason you want it to look like an old-style ifconfig 'alias' with label 'eth1:1', add the label: -- ip addr add 192.168.99.1/32 dev eth1 label eth1:1 -- Lonnie > On Oct 13, 2020, at 3:03 AM, Michael Keuter <[email protected]> wrote: > > > >> Am 13.10.2020 um 06:16 schrieb Michael Knill <[email protected]>: >> >> Hi Group >> >> Is there a way to add a secondary LAN IP Address with Astlinux? >> I cant see an INTIP_ALIAS variable! >> >> Regards >> Michael Knill > > https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-creating-or-adding-new-network-alias-to-a-network-card-nic/ > > You have to add this to rc.elocal to make it persistent. > > Michael > > http://www.mksolutions.info > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Astlinux-users mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/astlinux-users > > Donations to support AstLinux are graciously accepted via PayPal to [email protected]. > > _______________________________________________ Astlinux-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/astlinux-users Donations to support AstLinux are graciously accepted via PayPal to [email protected]. _______________________________________________ Astlinux-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/astlinux-users Donations to support AstLinux are graciously accepted via PayPal to [email protected].
