Extra IP addr arguments: Used to tune the operation of the network interface.

A non-standard broadcast address can be specified by entering broadcast
broadcast_address. For other settings that can be used here, please see

http://linux.die.net/man/8/ip

.

IP route arguments: Used to modify the invocation of the ip route add
command in order to, e.g., set the route metric. The options that can be set

here are mostly highly technical and should rarely be required. Please see

http://linux.die.net/man/8/ip

for more information.

7.2.2.3 IP aliasing

The IP aliasing table is used to add extra addresses to this interface, a practice

known as multi-homing. By default, the table displays three blank rows but,
should you need more, complete the first three and submit the form: it will be
redrawn with extra blank rows. Alternatively, clicking the

button on any

row will open a new row. In the same way, rows can be deleted by clicking
the corresponding

button.

IP and CIDR: The address should be entered in CIDR format, where the

address is followed by a slash and then the number of bits defining the
netmask, e.g. 192.168.0.1/24 for IPV4 or 2001:db8:/32 for IPV6.

Broadcast: Enter the broadcast address to be associated with this address on
the interface.

IP addr arguments: This field can be used to tune the operation of the

network interface. For settings that can be used here, please see

http://linux.die.net/man/8/ip

.

7.2.2.4 Extra routes

Routes are used to add extra network and host routes to allow access to

networks other than those connected via the default router specified earlier,
or to force packets to traverse a particular route despite the default router

setting. By default, the table displays three blank rows but, should you need
more, complete the first three and submit the form: it will be redrawn with
extra blank rows. Alternatively, clicking the

button on any row will open
