Creating IP aliases upon server reboot
 

Hi,

I have a server running RHEL 6, and have created multiple IP aliases on it. However, when I restart the server, the IP aliases are gone.

I tried to edit the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file to include

But it didn't work.

How can I make sure that the IP aliases stay after reboot?

Thank you.

Hi,

You need to create the proper interface(s), have a look here: Interface Configuration Files (Especially 13.2.4).

In short: Copy ifcfg-eth0 to ifcfg-eth0.1 and ifcfg-eth0.2. Change the appropriate fields and restart the network.

Hope this helps.

Thank you!

You're welcome :)
