Hi there,

I have a FreeBSD box which I'd like to add 30 IPs to. The original IP
is configured in /etc/rc.conf, via 'ifconfig_fxp0="inet 216.194.67.189
netmask 255.255.255.0"', and I want to add the IPs 66.51.113.193 to
66.51.113.223, netmask 255.255.255.224.

What's the recommended way for doing this?

Thanks,

Morten

You will probably find that you have to add them all with /32 netmasks,

since sub-interfaces don't usually allow anything greater.
You need to add a bunch of alias statements to rc.conf. You can do this
manually, or rig up a "for" statement to add them manually. You seem to
understand rc.conf OK.
Look up the alias option in man ifconfig.
