Hi all,

OS: fedora release 10

Is it possible to have a second IP address on one interface (eg. eth0) - alias interface configuration - in a different subnet?

fc 17 missing ifcfg-eth0 17 weeks 11 hours ago

Hello,

I am running Fedora release 17 (Beefy Miracle) and would like to set up a static IP address. I work with RHEL so I thought I would be able to locate a file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 but I have no such file on my system .

What's the use of /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth* files ? In some cases ifconfig lists the interface eth0 but I don't find the corresponding ifcfg-eth0 file whereas in other instances if I create the ifcfg-eth1 file and restart the network like service network restart - this interface is not listed in ifconfig ??

I've got an issue with a VMWare server running RHEL 6.3 that has dual E1000 NICs. I have configured the cards as I would normally do in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts as ifcfg-eth0 and ifcfg-eth1.

I can't ifdown an interface on a Debian 6.0.5 box;

user@box:/etc/network$ sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0 ifdown: interface eth0 not configured SIOCADDRT: File exists Failed to bring up eth0.

user@box:/etc/network$ cat interfaces auto lo iface lo inet loopback

allow-hotplug eth0 allow-hotplug eth1

auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 10.

I have a Linux network Bonding interface for two Ethernet interfaces (eth0 and eth1)

$ cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0 DEVICE=bond0 BOOTPROTO=static ONBOOT=yes IPADDR=XX.XX.XX.XX NETMASK=255.255.255.0 GATEWAY=XX.XX.XX.XXX

How i can add another IPADDR to this bonding Interface ?

Virtualbox centos no eth0 1 year 18 weeks ago

just installed a fresh centos-minimal and i can not get bridged network to work or any of the networks not even in host-only mode. when you run ifconfig there is no eth0 only a lo,

also when you cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

DEVICE="eth0" HWADDR="08:00:27:FE:D5:10" NM_CONTROLLED="yes" ONBOOT="no"

I have a strange networking problem with Windows 2008 server R2, running as guest under KVM-Qemu host. Host is CentOS 6.3 x86_64. It's network settings:

# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0 DEVICE=br0 BOOTPROTO=static BROADCAST=xx.xx.xx.63 IPADDR=xx.xx.xx.4 NETMASK=255.255.255.192 NETWORK=xx.xx.xx.0 ONBOOT=yes TYPE=Bridge

# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 DEVICE=eth0 HWAD
