marshelgot asked:
When I need to create a temporary bridge with interface on Linux I would use the following:
brctl addbr br0
brctl addif br0 eth0
ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0
ifconfig br0 192.168.10.100 netmask 255.255.255.0
ifconfig br0 up
I have been updating my process to use the ip command, However, I do not find the equivalent for removing the IP stack (ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0) via the ip command
I have tried the following:
ip addr add 0.0.0.0 dev eth0
ip addr add 0.0.0.0/24 dev eth0
but it does not work to remove the existing ip on that device.
would anyone happen to know if this is possible with the ip command
My answer:
You can’t delete an IP address with the add command!
If you want to delete an IP address from an interface, you del it.
ip addr del 203.0.113.187 dev eth0
