<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am not really sure this is the correct newsletter for my question, if not please apologize me and suggest me a right newsletter, thanks.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My goal is to simulate more than one IP interface using just a physical interface, for do that I tried using this alias<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Ifconfing ethX:1 <IP> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But when I try to send a packet over that interface I see the IP source the same as the original, and real, Ethernet interface. Then I tried to use TAP interface but I was unable to “link” them with my physical one, I notice them can communicate
each others but can not ping (ping –I tap0 <ip real IF>) the original one.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It is still valid if I create a bridge with all them.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I would like avoid to install many Virtual Box as I need but what I want is exactly what it do: build a new virtual interface and bridge it with a real one in order to have more IP interface attached at one physical.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any suggestion ?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks in advance, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Pietro.<o:p></o:p></p>
