Title:
  RTNETLINK answers: Numerical result out of range for alias interface
  from a usb NIC

Status in ifupdown package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have a USB NIC that is connected to my denial system. I tried to
  create an alias, and after reboot, it wasn't created. When I manually
  try to bring it up I have the error.

  /e/n/i:

  auto enx000ec688b79f
  iface enx000ec688b79f inet static
          address 10.90.90.1
