Am I correct in inferring ( not assuming no! ) that once a carp iface is
created we can not add aliases to them?
I can add alia to a carp iface by adding alias statements to hostname.carp
fw1:root:/etc #ifconfig carp1
carp1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
description: virtual if for all internal traffic
carp: MASTER carpdev em1 vhid 15 advbase 1 advskew 100
groups: carp
inet 198.160.35.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 198.160.35.255
inet 198.160.35.24 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 255.255.255.0
inet 198.160.35.25 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 255.255.255.0

inet 172.17.9.34 netmask 0xffff0000 broadcast 172.17.255.255
but afterwards when I ... well this:
fw1:root:/etc #ifconfig carp1 alias 123.32.217.21 netmask
255.255.255.0
ifconfig: SIOCAIFADDR: Can't assign requested address
Is there a way to add addrs without having to destroy and recreate the
iface?
