Thanks guys. Please, excuse my terminology. No I can route a single IP address to an IB port. But how do I route 2 (or more) IP addresses to the same IB port?
If I specify the same ib# it just changes an associated IP address for the port. If I specify next ib# it returns an error since that ib# does not have a port behind it.
