Hi Larry,
Though it is possible to use ifconfig to do what you want, I am also
assuming that you wish to make these IP aliases permanent and to comeback
upon reboot/restart.
So here is a better(?) way.
create a file called ifcfg-ethx-range0 that contains something to this
effect...
IPADDR_START=173.111.11.2
IPADDR_END=173.111.11.100
CLONENUM_START=0
and put it in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/
Alternatively, you can create a file for each additional alias you wish to
create by copying the ifcfg-ethx file and renaming it to ifcfg-etx:0(1, 2
,etc) and setting the appropriate addresses inside.
There are more instructions/options if you read the
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-aliases script.
Hope it helps...
Have fun,
--
