[Xorp-users] ospf4 / putting several IP aliases in OSPF networks

Hello,

I read in the user manual (page 93) that "OSPFv2 supports a single address
per interface/vif, therefore all parameters are set below the address
node.".

Does it mean that I cannot start several OSPF adjacencies from a Linux
network interface that has IP aliases (or secondary IP addresses as several
vendors call them)?

I am talking about Linux IP interfaces that look like this:

# ip addr show dev eth0
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state
UNKNOWN qlen 1000
    link/ether 54:52:00:67:af:9a brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet *10.0.1.1/24* brd 10.0.12.255 scope global eth0
    inet *10.0.2.1/24* scope global eth0
[...]


I would like to start adjacencies from both 10.0.1.1 and 10.0.2.1.
Is that supported?


Best Regards,


Guillaume Tamboise
