Linux Creating or Adding New Network Alias To a Network Card (NIC)
Q. I would like to create alias for my network card (NIC). How do I setup 2 IP address on One NIC? How do I add alias under Centos / Fedora / Debian / Ubuntu Linux?A. Linux allows you to add additional network address using alias feature. Please note that all additional network IP address must be in same subnet. For example if your eth0 using 192.168.1.5 IP address then alias must be setup using 192.168.1.0/24 subnet.
