Configuring Network Interfaces

The networkifs_base_config variable provides a list of network interfaces to use. For logical interfaces, use underscores (_) rather than colons (:). For each interface listed, you provide a group of four variables that defines the netname, netmask, hostname, and IP address for the interface. Use a colon to separate the variables.

The following example shows the content of the networkifs_base_config variable to define two interfaces.
