IP Alias to Virtual Machine

http://askubuntu.com – Thank you in advance for any help you can give. I have searched and searched and have not found an answer to my issue. I'm not sure if this should be in virtualisation or networking - since it's mostly a networking question, I'll ask here. I have a rent-a-server with one NIC and two real-world IP addresses. The first IP, 69.xxx.xxx.xxx, is the actual IP address of the server. The second IP, 209.xxx.xxx.xxx, is an IP alias. The interface is defined as follows: # loopback interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # ethernet interface auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 69.xxx.xxx.xxx (HowTos)

I have debian hosts which are connected through trunk port on 5 different vlans. But this host respond to arp "who-has" requests of all of their differents ip.

Hi All,

I have 2 NICs in my U9.04 Server box (eth0, eth1). After I added 2 virtual interfaces for each physical interface (eth0:1,eth0:2,eth1:1,eth1:2), the MAC addresses of all the interfaces have changed to that of eth0. Because eth1 was configured to be on my local network, I can't access the box remotely anymore.

On debian squeeze, I setup a bridge based on eth0.

This one has been cracking my head for quite a bit and I can't seem to find a decent answer for it, hoping you guys can shed some light to it...

Code: # Loopback interface: auto lo iface lo inet loopback

# Ethernet 0 interface: auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static     address 10.10.20.100     netmask 255.255.255.0     network 10.10.20.0     br

Hey all,

I'm having a really odd issue.

I just upgraded my 11.11 server to 12.04, by performing a clean install.

I edited my /etc/network/interfaces file to the following:

Code: # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them.

I'm wondering if I've found a bug in ifupdown, but I wanted to ask here before reporting a bug:

/etc/network/if-up.d/upstart seems to fail to emit static-network-up if any virtual interfaces are defined.

I've got ProxmoxVE2.1 ruled KVM node on Debian and bunch of VM's guests machine. That is how my networking looks like:

# network interface settings auto lo iface lo inet loopback

# device: eth0 auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 175.219.59.209 gateway 175.219.59.193 netmask 255.255.255.224 post-up echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/proxy_arp

And I've got two

I just did a recent install of Ubuntu Server 12.10 (no GUI, command line only) on a new system. I noticed that upon booting the server does not obtain an IP address from my router. However, once I log into the machine locally the server shows up on my list of DCHP clients and I can connect remotely without issue.

Hi All,

I'm trying to setup 15 or so different IP addresses that I'd like the eth0 interface to bind on. I've looked online at quite a few guides that show how to add multiple IP addresses to the /etc/network/interfaces file. However, they do not show a configuration in which different ranges of IP addresses are added on one interface.
