    Hi,

    I have question for the network. Is it possible to setup 2 ip address with different subnet for each ip address on one ethernet card?

    Hi

    Yes, you can use the ifconfig command with the alias option in order to add up to eight ip address to a single interface.

    ifconfig enXX alias <Ip-Address> netmask <Network-Mask>

    ifconfig -a

    then you should see 2 ip address and you should ping to the alias as well as the network alloes it.

    Hope this helps
