Re: [pfSense Support] ip aliases for LAN interface

[Agi Subagio]

i'm using pfSense 1.2-RELEASE.

i try to add this line:
*    <shellcmd>ifconfig sk0 inet 172.16.1.252 netmask 255.255.255.0 
alias</shellcmd>*
   </system>
   <interfaces>
       <lan>
           <if>sk0</if>
           <ipaddr>172.16.4.252</ipaddr>
           <subnet>24</subnet>
           <media/>
           <mediaopt/>
           <bandwidth>100</bandwidth>
           <bandwidthtype>Mb</bandwidthtype>
           <bridge/>
       </lan>
and the result look like this:
sk0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
       options=b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU>
       inet 172.16.4.252 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 172.16.4.255
       inet6 fe80::211:2fff:fedb:f729%sk0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2
       inet 172.16.1.252 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 172.16.1.255
       ether 00:11:2f:db:f7:29
       media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
       status: active

but i still can't ping vpn client from LAN-2 (172.16.1.0/24) and can't 
ping the ip 172.16.1.252 also.

if i upgrade to pfSense-Full-Update-2.0-ALPHA-ALPHA-20090208-0149.tgz, 
what will happen to my existing configuration?

I want to make VPN box with pfSense.

I have two office LAN:
LAN-1: 172.16.4.0/24
LAN-2: 172.16.1.0/24

and roadwarrior vpn client use 172.16.100.0/24.

In pfSense's LAN interface I use 172.16.4.252/24 and I can ping vpn client
from LAN-1 vice versa.
How to add another ip alias in pfSense's LAN interface so I can ping vpn
client from LAN-2?

    

Generally not a good practice, but if you must:
