None of the new(er) networking tools recognise device aliases, because on
all recent linux releases, aliases don't exist.
the ethX:X notation is a legacy notation used only by the ifconfig program.
everything else just sees a ethX with more than one IP address.
So you just run your shaping rules on the real interfaces, and restrict
it's operation with IP address filtering.
