Subject: Network device aliases
Date: Fri, 10 Aug 2001 04:27:29 +0100 (BST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200108100327.EAA22951@mauve.demon.co.uk> (raw)
I think I've more or less worked out how network devices are initiated,
and configured, with the help of the htmlised sources, but am not
finding anything on how aliases (eth0:1 ...) work.
Do they have an entire device structure that only differs in name and
IP address?
Any pointers would be most welcome.
Many thanks.
