There is no limitation on the number of Ethernet -devices that setnet.sh can manage, but you should be careful -with having more than one <b>dhclient</b> processes running, -since each of them will try to add a default gateway to the -kernel routing table.</p> - -<p style="margin-top: 1em"><b>SECURITY -CONSIDERATIONS</b></p> - -<p style="margin-left:6%;">Configuring networking is an -administration task, and setnet.sh requires root privileges -to work properly.
