Last I heard, IP aliasing is already obsolete. It is now possible to add multiple IP addresses to a single interface like eth0 using iproute. Just keep adding IP adds like this:
ip addr add 192.168.0.1/24 dev eth0
ip addr add 192.168.1.1/24 dev eth0
ip addr add 192.168.2.1/24 dev eth0
ip addr add 192.168.3.1/24 dev eth0
No need to append :<string> to each device. To display IPs added using iproute, don't use ifconfig because it won't show them, use:
ip addr show
or simply:
ip addr
Carlo
