Hello Grant, |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
If you look at /etc/conf.d/net.example, you'll get some ideas. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
I have a machine with (4) interfaces and here is what I use |
| 12 |
for /etc/conf.d/net : |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
mac_eth0="00:50:DA:61:31:1C" |
| 16 |
mac_eth1="00:48:54:62:64:FD" |
| 17 |
mac_eth2="00:40:F4:D0:B1:96" |
| 18 |
mac_eth3="00:48:54:62:64:FC" |
| 19 |
iface_eth0="192.168.2.20 broadcast 192.168.3.255 netmask 255.255.255.0" |
| 20 |
iface_eth1="192.168.3.11 broadcast 192.168.3.255 netmask 255.255.255.0" |
| 21 |
iface_eth2="14.173.99.102 broadcast 14.173.99.103 netmask 255.255.255.252" |
| 22 |
iface_eth3="192.168.4.11 broadcast 192.168.4.255 netmask 255.255.255.0" |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
I had troubles with the machine inconsistently assiging a given ip |
| 25 |
address to a specific card. The 'mac' statements seem to nail this |
| 26 |
down for me. The is for a single static IP address but there are |
| 27 |
examples for dhcp in the /etc/conf.d/net.example file too. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Note, this experimental router is using the old syntax and is scheduled |
| 30 |
for lots of upgrades, so I post it here, as an example that seemed to |
| 31 |
work for the problems I encountered a year ago. I'd be open to other |
| 32 |
ideas..... and comments. |
