The first address assigned to a nic becomes the primary (only).
Additional addresses become 'secondary'.
With the default set-up, then if you take down the primary,
all addresses go down.
There is a flag in /proc, I forget where, that can be set
to change the above behavior.
With the flag set - then when you take down the (current)
primary address, one of the secondary addresses becomes
primary.
This has been on the mailing list before, should be findable.
