(The IP Address is used as the Identifier) But I need it to gather Info from 2 ports... Therefore, If I give the box 2 IP addresses, each one can be used to gather data from the alternate ports.
... curious .....
try the following
ifconfig <devicename>:<logical number> plumb
ifconfig <devicename:logical number> <ipaddress> netmask <netmask>
eg;
ifconfig hme0:1 plumb
ifconfig hme0:1 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.0.0
remember, if this plumbed interface exists on another subnet, you need
to add a gateway for it (if it needs to get out of the subnet ....)
