How to add multiple IP address on linux machine different IP range?

Hi All,

Is that possible if I want to assign different IP address on one network card with the different IP range?
e.g:
eth0 ==> 192.168.1.1
eth0:1 ==> 192.168.2.2

Regards,
Arfal

Yes, it's possible

just create another ifcfg file,
for example your ethernet card is on eth0
and the configuration file is on ifcfg-eth0
create another file named ifcfg-eth-0:0

with content:
IPADDR=192.168.2.2
NETMASK=255.255.255.0

and restart your network service.

I'm using SLES 10 and I don't think it is work on SuSE environment.
I have 2 vlan
vlan 1 is 192.168.1.xx
vlan 2 is 192.168.2.xx

ok, I'm successfully add virtual IP address to my machine named eth0:1
The problem is, I want to assign it to the different vlan ID using vconfig, how to add eth0:1 to vlan ID 2? it's said error argument when I tried to add it.
