Yes you can, you'll just have to set the netmask to 0xffffffff as you do with aliased IPs. This is a documented requirement. From the ifconfig manpage: alias Establish an additional network address for this interface. This is sometimes useful when changing network numbers, and one wishes to accept packets addressed to the old interface. If the address is on the same subnet as the first network address for this interface, a non-conflicting netmask must be given. Usually 0xffffffff is most appropriate. I have something similar set up at my apartment using gbit ether and firewire: nge0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 10.10.10.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.10.10.255 fwe1: flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 10.10.10.56 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 10.10.10.56 Regards, > Andre Guibert de Bruet | Enterprise Software Consultant > > Silicon Landmark, LLC. | http://siliconlandmark.com/ > > > Thanks for the great work on Project Evil! > > Eric > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-current_at_freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscribe_at_freebsd.org" >Received on Thu Mar 11 2004 - 22:41:27 UTC
