Hello FreeBSD users, I have been operating under the assumption that the same network interface card cannot handle two different networks. But then I seem to have seen an example in one of the OReill¥ books on networking that had one interface with one assigned inet address and also aliased with another address that could only be on another network. If I understood that right, it seems to imply that I can use one Network interface card for at least two different networks, like so; 192.168.1.<somthing> and alias 172.0.0.<something> or; 192.168.1.<something> alias 192.168.2.<something> If this is possible is it accomplished via a special routing? My concern is that I have a laptop with one network interface, built in, but would like to access it both at a public static address and a private network address. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance for time and attention; Jeff K _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
