I'm trying to create virtuel ethernet networks on my Debian machine.
I've got 4 static IPs assigned to the machine, and would like them to be virtuel present at eth2, eth3 etc. instead of eth1:0, eth1:1 etc.
Is that possible?
My software needs to believe that there are multiple physical networks attached to the machine.
I've looked at VDE2 by Googling around, but that does not seem to solve the problem or am I mistaken?

eth0
,eth1
represent discrete network interfaces. If your machine doesn't have more than one network interface you're only going to have oneeth0
(orenp1s0
, etc.) interface.
