 |
|
My /etc/conf.d/net.example contains this comment and example:
| Quote: |
# If you need more than one address, you can use something like this
# NOTE: ifconfig creates an aliased device for each extra IPv4 address
# (eth0:1, eth0:2, etc)
# iproute2 does not do this
#config_eth0=(
# "192.168.0.2/24"
# "192.168.0.3/24"
# "192.168.0.4/24"
#)
|
This makes sense and I do use ifconfig. My ISP provides me with several ip adresses over DHCP and if I run two physical devices it works good as long as I give one of them the nogateway option.
What I _would_ like is something similar to this:
| Quote: |
config_eth0=( "dhcp" "dhcp" "dhcp" )
|
Is there some way to do this with aliased devices and dhcp for each of the adresses recieved? |

your file (/etc/conf.d/net) needs to contain:

The example file does not mention anything about iface at all, is it really the way it works in the most recent versions? If it is, where can I find more information about iface_*?
The only non-commented information I currently is:
| Code: | config_eth0=( "dhcp" )
dhcpcd_eth0="-t 20"
dhcp_eth0="nontp nonis" |

| Thanks for the reply. I guess the easiest way will be to put more physical interfaces into the box and add nogateway for all but one of them and use dhcp. |
