I rent a dedicated server (centos 6.7) with 4 IP addresses assigned to an adapater (eth1, eth1:1,eth1:2,eth1:2). Using the howto here: https://www.howtoforge.com/virtualization-with-kvm-on-a-centos-6.4-server I'm trying to create a bridge to eth1:2. The howto gave an example using eth0 and I copied substituting eth1:2 everywhere there was eth0. This didn't seem to work. What am I not understanding?
What do you mean with 'This doesn't seem to work'? Could you explain a bit more what you experience and if you have any configurations and logs that would be helpfull
I was trying to use eth1:2 where the howto mentioned eth1. That didn't work. I need to spend some time wrapping my brain around the terminology. A bridge isn't what I was thinking it was. Thanks for the response, tho. I need to RTM
