We need information on how to configure Linux Red Hat 5 IPtables for the sub-interfaces that use the 11.2.0.2 RAC SCAN and VIP IPs
 We have just moved all of our dev/tst/prd  10.2.0.4 RAC databases to new hardware (Dell Red Hat 5 Linux) and each environment is on  2-node 11.2.0.2 RAC.  We want to enable Linux IPTables. We have it configured on our old RAC and all other database servers

We understand how to use IPtables generally, but Oracle appears to use semi-random sub-interfaces ranging from eth0:1 to eth0:5. Is that the entire range, or are there other sub-interface names that Oracle might possibly use (i.e. would it ever use a sub-interface as high as eth0:99)?

Howdy, Stranger!
