Hi folks, I'm trying (with no success) to assign multiple IP addresses to eth0 on my Bering-uClibc 2.1-rc1 box.
At Tom's suggestion, I have read (studied really) his instructions at: http://www.shorewall.net/shorewall_setup_guide.htm. I have been assigned by our network admin the following addresses: 66.60.172.201-204, Gateway 205. In /etc/shorewall/masq I have made the following entry: #INTERFACE SUBNET ADDRESS eth0:0 eth1 66.60.172.201-66.60.172.204 When I save the file, restart shorewall, and issue the ip addr command I'm expecting to see the additional addresses but here's what I get: 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo 2: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop link/ether 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 3: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000 link/ether 00:a0:cc:d3:c2:14 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 66.60.172.201/24 brd 66.60.172.255 scope global eth0 inet 66.60.172.204/24 brd 66.60.172.255 scope global secondary eth0:0 4: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000 link/ether 00:a0:cc:52:07:52 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.168.1.254/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global eth1 5: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop qlen 1000 link/ether 00:a0:cc:d3:cf:40 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff When I try to ping the addresses, I can ping only 66.60.172.201 but nothing else. In the /etc/network/interfaces file, I have eth0 statically set to 66.60.172.201, and I use the dhcpd for assigning local addresses. I'm stumped...any suggestions??? P.S. One thing I did gave me, what *I* think, was a really unusual result: I had initially set eth0's static address as 66.60.172.204, and when I tried to ping 66.60.172.201...here's what I got: G:\WINNT\system32>ping 66.60.172.201 Pinging 66.60.172.201 with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 66.60.172.204: Destination host unreachable. Reply from 66.60.172.204: Destination host unreachable. Reply from 66.60.172.204: Destination host unreachable. Reply from 66.60.172.204: Destination host unreachable. Ping statistics for 66.60.172.201: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms Is that really odd...or is it me??? :-) I see there's no packet loss...but I also can't reach the box. Hmmmm.
