====== Virtual Interfaces (vifs) ======

This is how to setup a virtual interface on Slackware:

  - as root, edit ''/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf''
  - configure vifs in the following fashion:\\ <code>## Virtual Interfaces
# eth0:1 vif
IFNAME[4]="eth0:1"
IPADDR[4]="192.168.1.2"
NETMASK[4]="255.255.255.0"
USE_DHCP[4]="no"
DHCP_HOSTNAME[4]=""

# eth0:2 vif
IFNAME[5]="eth0:2"
IPADDR[5]="192.168.1.3"
NETMASK[5]="255.255.255.0"
USE_DHCP[5]="no"
DHCP_HOSTNAME[5]=""
</code>
  - reboot, restart ''rc.inet1'', or manually restart each vif
