shared IP

shared IP

[EB3CZS Xavier Crehueras]

I read in the AX25-HOWTO that it is possible to have the same IP address in all the radio ports but routing must be carefully configured. I have a machine with 4 radio ports sharing an IP address. Has anyone tried something like this? Can anyone give me some advice to configure routing?

Thank you

I never have used more than one IP on my machine, all interfaces ececpt one 
have my 44.ampr.org address, one nic gets assigned via dhcp.

Examples for routing, that is not a wise thing to do without knowing what you 
want, however lets say you have 2 different subnets on 2 different interfaces.

ax0 = 44.111.123.0
ax1 = 44.111.321.0

route add -net 44.111.123.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 ax0
route add -net 44.111.321.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 ax1

Take a look at my web site, there are some example there i am sure could help.
