Use nameif. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Add to /etc/conf.d/local.start something like this: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
/sbin/nameif temp.eth0 <mac of the primary interface> |
| 15 |
/sbin/nameif temp.eth1 <mac of the second interface> |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
/sbin/nameif eth0 <mac of the primary interface> |
| 18 |
/sbin/nameif eth1 <mac of the secondary interface> |
| 19 |

It's a little clunky, but it works. Ensure local is set to start at |
| 21 |
boot, and add "before *" to the depend section: |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
depend() { |
| 24 |
before * |
| 25 |
} |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
This will ensure it gets started before anything touches the |
| 29 |
interfaces, and will make sure the correct interface is eth0 every |
| 30 |
time. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
I'm sure there is a better/easier way of doing this, but it's a stupid |
| 33 |
hack that works for me :) |
