Re: multi-homing in freebsd

Going by Zaphod's recommendation of using a /32 for each IP, how about this?

ifconfig arge0 inet 192.168.1.100/32
ifconfig arge0 alias 192.169.1.100/32

I wouldn't recommend 192.169, though - only 192.168.x.x is reserved
for private networks, and 192.169 is a valid IP-routable prefix,
assigned to some US company.
To be exact: The ranges from RFC1918 are 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0 /20
and 192.168.0.0/24.
