A logical iface is missing

MAC address

Unconfig eri0 logical iface by IP 192.168.2.100

ifconfig eri0 removeif 192.168.2.100

Recommended and non-recommended netmasks

contiguous : recommended (11110000)
non-contiguous : non-recommended (01001010)

Add next logical iface to blade permanently

/etc/hostname.eri0 :
blade up
addif 192.168.2.4 up

Config next logical iface to 192.168.2.4

ifconfig eri0 addif 192.168.2.4 up

ifconfig -a shows that all logical ifaces have

the same index number

Config logical iface eri0:2 to 192.168.2.100

ifconfig eri0:2 plumb 192.168.2.100 up
