Hi misc,
I was not able to find the information about ifconfig support for the IPv4
address configuration where I have primary address assigned by DHCP
(Comcast) and alias with static IP. My cable modem mgmt IP belongs to
192.168.100.0/24 subnet and to access it - I have to add an alias - but it
always overwrite DHCP-assigned address (OpenBSD 5.8-stable (GENERIC.MP)).
I tried the following hostname.if config but the last line overwrite dhcp
address:
$ cat /etc/hostname.em0
lladdr b8:c7:ff:cd:ff:0e
dhcp
up
rtsol
inet alias 192.168.100.50 255.255.255.0
# sh /etc/netstart em0
em0: no link ..... got link
DHCPREQUEST on em0 to 255.255.255.255
DHCPACK from 96.xxx.xx.113 (00:01:5c:63:fc:46)
bound to 67.xxx.xx.xx9 -- renewal in 92649 seconds.
# ifconfig em0
em0: flags=208843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST,AUTOCONF6> mtu 1500
lladdr b8:c7:ff:cd:ff:0e
