>From /usr/share/doc/openrc-0.7.0/net.example: ############################################################################## # INTERFACE HANDLERS # # We provide two interface handlers presently: ifconfig and iproute2. # You need one of these to do any kind of network configuration. # For ifconfig support, emerge sys-apps/net-tools # For iproute2 support, emerge sys-apps/iproute2 # If you don't specify an interface then we prefer iproute2 if it's installed # To prefer ifconfig over iproute2 #modules="ifconfig" But for some reason modules="ifconfig" doesn't seem to work for me (eth0:1 doesn't get created) but modules="!ifconfig" works ;) Also it seems that modules_ethX shouldn't be an array, modules_eth0="!plug !iproute2" uses ifconfig, modules_eth0=( "!plug" "!iproute2" ) uses iproute2 ;) As to why you have iproute2 installed... I always install it, so I can't say which packages might be pulling it in, but you can use equery to find out: tableta ~ # equery depends iproute2 * These packages depend on iproute2: net-misc/openvpn-2.2.0-r1 (iproute2 ? sys-apps/iproute2[-minimal]) yoyo
