Multiple IP on 1 NIC and 1 being DHCP

P

Peter

Hello,
I want to configure a NIC for having TWO ip-addresses.

One of the IP will be static but i want the other to be
set using DHCP. Is this possible?

There's not a supported way to do this.

You can configure multiple static IP addresses,
-or-
Configure DHCP with the option to fall back to an
alternate address if HDCP fails.

That said, there is an unsupported way to do this.
I've seen this posted here and on the web.
I've never tried it, and I don't know if anything bad might happen.
