ifconfig lo1 create ifconfig lo1 inet 127.1.2.3/24 ifconfig lo1 inet 127.1.2.4/32 alias launch jail A with IP 127.1.2.3 and jail B with IP 127.1.2.4 No any packet leaves host. 127.1.2.0/24 will be something like the "internal network" _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
