Anyone know of good sites/books discussing how to setup a linux box with 2
NICs, where 1 NIC is being assigned an address by my ISP (through a cable
modem), and the other wants to talk to my internal network? I can get RH
linux up and running with one NIC to the ISP, just unclear on how to deal
with the second. The linux box will have to act as a firewall, proxy server,
and DHCP for the internal network.
Any help greatly appreciated.

1. Newbie in need for help with setting up second NIC
Hi All,
I brought a Netra AC200 in hope to learn more about Solaris. From the
back it has two NIC sockets. I like to know if the NICs are setup as
reductant or if they are two separate NICs. If the later I would like
to setup the second nic to a different subnet.
I have read a few post on the web and find that I need to set the
local-mac-address? to True so the mac address will show on both NIC.
However, this was not the case for me.
I have the ifconfig -a output.
lo0: flags=1000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 8232 index
1
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
eri0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500
index 2
inet 192.168.0.106 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
ether 0:3:ba:6:13:c4
lo0: flags=2000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6> mtu 8252 index
1
inet6 ::1/128
eri0: flags=2000841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 2
ether 0:3:ba:6:13:c4
inet6 fe80::203:baff:fe06:13c4/10
#
And the netstat -rn output
Routing Table: IPv6
Destination/Mask Gateway Flags Ref

--------------------------- --------------------------- ----- ---

fe80::/10 fe80::203:baff:fe06:13c4 U 1

ff00::/8 fe80::203:baff:fe06:13c4 U 1
0 eri0
default fe80::203:baff:fe06:13c4 U 1
0 eri0
::1 ::1 UH 3
22 lo0
If I'm reading this right. I says that I have two NICs, but they both
have the same name "eri0" and MAC address.
How could I configure the second with a different name and IP address.
Thanks,
Michael.
