# sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces
Your original will look something like this:
# Used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8). See the interfaces(5) manpage or
# /usr/share/doc/ifupdown/examples for more information.
auto lo eth0
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet static
address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
netmask 255.255.255.255
broadcast 0.0.0.0
Add the following below it to add another address to the same interface:
auto eth0:1
iface eth0:1 inet static
address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
netmask 255.255.255.255
broadcast 0.0.0.0
Exit.
# sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
Ping the interface and check to see if the IP is up.
Hi
I made the configuration but it doesnot work, the address doesn´t answer to ping, this is my interface configuration:
#—————————————–
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 197.0.2.76
netmask 255.255.0.0
network 197.0.2.0
broadcast 197.0.2.255
gateway 197.0.0.1
# dns-* options are implemented by the resolvconf package, if installed
dns-nameservers 197.0.0.6
dns-search heinsohn.com.co
#This were the lines that I add to the file but it doesn´t work
auto eth0:1
iface eth0:1 inet static
address 197.0.2.231
netmask 255.255.0.0
broadcast 0.0.0.0
Thanks if anybody knows why it doesn´t work
Bye
Hi
I find the solution:
Only missed to activate the interface with:
ifup eth0:1
Bye
