What spec defines that "dev" can't be used as a name in networking world? I.e. this one works: # ifconfig eth0:dev 1.2.3.4 # ifconfig eth0:prod 2.3.4.5 This will also work: # ip addr add 10.1.2.3 dev eth0 label eth0:dev # ip addr add 10.2.3.4 dev eth0 label eth0:prod This one also works: # brctl addbr prod # brctl addbr dev # brctl show bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces dev 8000.000000000000 no prod 8000.000000000000 no -- Tomasz Chmielewski https://lxadm.com _______________________________________________ lxc-users mailing list lxc-users@lists.linuxcontainers.org http://lists.linuxcontainers.org/listinfo/lxc-users
