Solved Additional STATIC IP's in rc.conf not working since provider switch to ARP-Networks (New Setup)

[StreetDancer]

I do not know if anyone uses ARP-Networks for their FreeBSD VPS. I just switched and my old host used several virtual adapters for each assigned static ip. With ARP-Networks; I am assigned a block; however adding a secondary line doesn't seem to work. For example:

excerpt from rc.conf: (My main Static IP that works w/ internet)

ifconfig_vtnet0="inet 206.162.240.66 netmask 255.255.255.244"
defaultrouter="206.162.240.65"

Then when I tried to mirror what I had existing from my previous host and it's backed up rc.conf

I added the following lines to this one:

ifconfig_vtnet0_1="206.162.240.67 netmask 255.255.255.244"

static_routes="gw1"
route_gw1="-net 206.162.240.0/24 206.162.240.65"

Which didn't work ... Then I tried:

ifconfig_vtnet1="206.162.240.67 netmask 255.255.255.244"

static_routes="gw1"
route_gw1="-net 206.162.240.0/24 206.162.240.65"

Which also didn't work! I sent an e-mail to support; I just didn't know if anyone on here uses them as a Host Provider. They got me up and running very fast and I am quite pleased so far!

If anyone could point me in the right direction as to how to add that sub-sequential static IP to the rc.conf and for it to work; I would be greatly appreciated!

Happy 4th of July to all of us Americans!

Best Regards,

Brandon

This was solved with assistance from ARPNetworks!

Here is an exerpt of my rc.conf that got me off and sailing: (Showing the 1st Static IP) *My initial Main one* and then 1 additional statics using the same route.

hostname="server1.hostdomain.com"
ifconfig_vtnet0="inet 206.162.240.66 netmask 255.255.255.224"

ifconfig_vtnet0_alias1="inet 206.162.240.67 netmask 255.255.255.224"
