Multiple ethernet ports

I've installed slitaz on a machine that has 3 ethernet ports but slitaz only configures the first one (eth0). If I run netbox it shows all 3 interfaces but only the first has an ip address.

How do I enable all the ports in slitaz?

Re: Multiple ethernet ports

you have to do it by console with ifconfig

Re: Multiple ethernet ports

You could creat a script 'start_net' with one line by interface ex:

   ifconfig eth0 10.10.10.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

   ifconfig eth1 10.10.20.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

   ...

   etc

chmod +x start_net

manualy run the script to test

./start_net

To automatize add a line ". /path_to_start_net/start_net" in /etc/init.d/local.sh

Enjoy
