Gentoo way to declare a virtual interface

[guzu]

Hi,

I'm wondering if there's a way to setup a virtual interface in Gentoo.
I see a least two scenarios :
1) Add *_eth0:1=(...) entries in /etc/conf.d/net
2) Edit postup() function in /etc/conf.d/net and add
ifconfig eth0:1 aa.bb.cc.dd
route blah blah blah
...

Any suggestion ?
Thanks

1999 called - they want their aliases back!

This is 2007, you don't need a virtual interface to add extra addresses or routes.

config_eth0=( "192.168.0.2/24" "192.168.0.3/24")

See?
