I have eight nics as below

On that only eth4, eth6 and eth7 are configured ( or have ifcfg-eth4 , ifcfg-eth6 and ifcfg-eth7) . Wondering why there is eth1 and eth5 and also _tmp*
Thanks! Paras.

eth1 exists because the /dev device was found on boot (you have 2 or more network interfaces). eth12 does due to you not have 13+ nic's or did not map a network device to be eth12.

Hi,
I don't have ifcfg-eth1 in my /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts. But when I do ifconfig eth1 I can see output as below. If I do ifconfig eth12 , I don't see anything which i am assume is normal.
eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:24:E8:44:DB:CC BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) Interrupt:17 Memory:e8000000-e8012800
Don't know why and how this is happening.
Thanks! Paras. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
