Configuring interface aliases for a connection

Use this procedure to assign alias IP address for an Internet network connection. Alias addresses enable the

addresses are in addition to the primary IP address assigned via the network connection configuration. You

forward packets from the alias address to servers on the local network. For information, see NAT.
