To stop / disable network interface use ifconfig command. It is used to configure the kernel-resident network interfaces.
You can pass up and down flags/option to this command. ==> up - This flag causes the interface to be activated. It is implicitly specified if an address is assigned to the interface. ==> down - This flag causes the driver for this interface to be shut down. So the following command will disable eth1: Code:
ifconfig eth1 down Code:
ifconfig eth1 up

Jo,
you can use ifup or ifdown command: * ifup : bring a network interface up * ifdown : take a network interface down To take down eth1 Code:
ifdown eth1 Code:
ifup eth1
