Hi Juan,
I have few doughts in IP Alias.
1) How route table will be effected. I mean is there any changes required
for RIP...?
For e.g, If I assign an IP address belonging to some other subnet, will
routing loops may occur...?
2) How ARP will respond to these (eth0:1, etc) new interfaces assignd IP
address of some other subnet. There may be replys from more than one
host, and so increase in control traffic.
3) If I were to advertise these static routes in my RIP reports, (havig
virtual subnet over mine), is there a possibility of routing loops.
4) How does the source routing and Record Routing behave in this case..I
mean will there be any kind of overhead..?
5) Is there any RFC or IP MIB regarding IP Aliasing stuff, I want more
theory before I start off.. any pointers for implimentors..?
6) Is there any IP Alias specific Discussion Group..?
Mean while I would like to know more applicability of IP Aliasing apart
from a virtual web hosting, etc. I would be more interested in vLAN
fundas...
Thanks for ur time and congrats for a wonderful work..
Regards
Vishwanath S. Edavayyanamath
