The correct name for this is IP Aliasing, BTW, and it requires a kernel module to work. I haven't actually done it with LEAF or using "ip". The basics of how to do it (although the examples use ifconfig) are here:How do you define a virtual interface, :0. This would definitely solve the problem.

Again, I have not used "ip" with this, and, as you probably already know, there is no convenient online version of an "ip" command reference (or is there?). So I'm left to guess based on analogies to "ifconfig". If the appropriate module is loaded (or the capability is compiled in the kernel, I suppose), it *might* work to do -- "ip addr 3.3.3.5/24 dev eth0:0". (I didn't test this because I don't have the IP_alias module installed on my Linux workstation or my router.)what I do is: ip addr 3.3.3.5/24 dev eth0 which does not produce an eth0:0
