[Linux-users] 2 IP's on the same network card

[Dirk Moolman]

Just a question - how do I make a network setting, like the eth0:1 that
I created below, permanent ? .... so that it stays when I reboot the
server

Ok, I found it - and it is actually so simple:

To plumb your device, you may run the command:

ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0
ifconfig eth0:1 172.16.5.1 netmask 255.255.255.0


"These commands would plumb the interface. Notice that the eth0:1 gives
the interface the second IP address. Using any number in place of the
'1' would also work."
