Typically, we can assigned a primary IP to xyz0, then set a few other different subnet IPs to xyz0:1, zyx0:2, etc. And interface xyz0 will work for multi-home NIC. But in this case, the interface stop working -- the machine cannot reach to the network. I will look into this further to see if I can got a solution or figure out what is the problem. --- On Sun, 8/15/10, vwe@FreeBSD.org wrote: > From: vwe@FreeBSD.org > Subject: Re: bin/149351: [request] dhclient(8): DHCP can make one interface to have multiple IP addresses > To: jguojun@sbcglobal.net, vwe@FreeBSD.org, freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org > Date: Sunday, August 15, 2010, 9:11 PM > Synopsis: [request] dhclient(8): DHCP > can make one interface to have multiple IP addresses > > State-Changed-From-To: open->suspended > State-Changed-By: vwe > State-Changed-When: Sun Aug 15 21:09:54 UTC 2010 > State-Changed-Why: > Jin, I think most developers will agree with the current > behavior of dhclient. > On the other side, I can really understand your point.
