Do you mean this just for jail.conf configuration/usage?

If so, from all I’ve read and tried, that makes complete sense, and makes me sad as it prevents me from using the slickness of jail.conf(1) and jail_set(2) - not yet :)

However, to be very clear for the list archive, jails can most definately have many IP addresses, (since between FreeBSD 7 and 8 I believe?), including loopback, (which is just an IP address like any other),

For example,

# ifconfig em0 inet alias 10.10.10.10/32
# ifconfig em1 inet alias 10.10.10.11/32
# ifconfig lo0 inet alias 127.0.0.11/32
# ifconfig em0 inet6 alias 2:2:2:2::10 prefixlen 64
# jail -c path=/some/place host.hostname=myjail ip4.addr=“10.10.10.10,10.10.10.11,127.0.0.11" ip6.addr="2:2:2:2::10" command=/bin/sh /etc/rc

Best,
.ike
