The NIC which has two IP addressses is not active always
Issue
- RHEL5 server has one Network Interface card with two IP addresses (eth0 and eth0:0); when it changes its network the eth0:0 address goes "inactive", but in both positions eth0 is "active".
We need also eth0:0 be network sensitive, i.e. when we are in 1st network eth0 active, in 2nd network eth0:0 be active.
Before a general electrical failure we had experienced it was working well.
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5
