This is from the man page of ifconfig and there it is

alias   Establish an additional network address for this interface.
This
	     is sometimes useful when changing network numbers, and one
wishes
	     to accept packets addressed to the old interface.	If the
address
	     is on the same subnet as the first network address for this
	     interface, a non-conflicting netmask must be given.
Usually
	     0xffffffff is most appropriate.
