Brian, as a former pfsense dev (5 years) and a freebsd kernel/interface dev
for 15 I do know how it works. Alias ips has worked altleast since freebsd
4. But in pfsense it was apparently added in 2.0. As I said I haven't
messed with interface aliases since 2007 ish. You still did not get what I
told you tho. If ifconfig shows multiple IPs it is a true alias. If not
then they are something else.

Brgds, Espen
