For organizations using IBM/AIX, use the following procedure for each IP address that your organization is using with Multiple IP Support for Web Access Management.
- On the command line, run the following command to set the system alias:
ifconfig <device> alias <IP address>
where <device> is the device name and <IP address> is the alternate IP address.
For example:
ifconfig en0 alias 12.34.56.71
- Log in as superuser and edit the /etc/rc.local file to add the alias information.
Add the following:
ifconfig <device> alias <IP address>
where <device> is the device name and <IP address> is the IP address.
For example:
ifconfig en0 alias 12.34.56.71
- Save your changes and quit the /etc/rc.local file.
- Edit the /etc/inittab and add the line to boot the /etc/rc.local file when the system starts.
For example:
rclocal:2:once:/etc/rc.local > /dev/console 2 > 81
Save and quit.
To test the setup, telnet to each IP address entered in the /etc/rc.local file.
