**Purpose**:
|
||||||
|
You may find that you only have one network adapter on a server / VM and need to have multiple virtual networks associated with it. For example, Home Assistant exists on the `192.168.3.0/24` network but it needs to also access devices on the `192.168.4.0/24` surveillance network. To facilitate this, we will make a MACVLAN Sub-Interface. This will make a virtual interface that is parented to the actual physical interface.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
!!! info "Assumptions"
|
||||||
|
It is assumed that you are running Rocky Linux (or CentOS / RedHat).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Create the Temporary Interface
|
||||||
|
You will begin with making a new interface, it will have the name `macvlan0`.
|
||||||
|
``` sh
|
||||||
|
ip link add macvlan0 link eno1 type macvlan mode bridge
|
||||||
|
ip addr add 192.168.4.100/24 dev macvlan0
|
||||||
|
ip link set macvlan0 up
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Bind a Docker Network to the Sub-Interface
|
||||||
|
Now you need to run the following command to allow docker to use this interface for the `surveillance_network`
|
||||||
|
``` sh
|
||||||
|
docker network create -d macvlan --subnet=192.168.4.0/24 --gateway=192.168.4.1 -o parent=macvlan0 surveillance_network
|
||||||
|
```
