Alias IP for loopback lo0

[djmizt]

ver. 1.2.3-Stable

Is there a way to add an alias IP to lo0 automagically? I need it to come up before BGP. Would a script at /usr/local/etc/rc.d with a filename starting in say 000.ip_lo0.sh do it?

There probably isn't a good way to do that in the GUI for lo0. You could install the shellcmd package and then add a shellcmd in there, those get run at bootup and it may do what you need. In the shellcmd just add the ifconfig command you would normally run by hand.
