Curious question:
If I configure multiple IP addresses to a NIC, and assign 1.2.3.4 to
eth0 and 5.6.7.8 to eth0:0 (a virtual NIC) is there extra work involved
on the part of the CPU or memory or whatever in routing traffic via
5.6.7.8 than 1.2.3.4.. I mean does one IP have an advantage over the
other in any sense?
Thanks,
Davy
