This is quirky :-( The usual way to add dummy interfaces would be to 
create /etc/modprobe.d/dummy.conf and add these lines:

alias dummy0 dummy
alias dummy1 dummy
alias dummy2 dummy
options dummy numdummies=3

Unfortunately, I was not able to add dummy_* devices using this method, 
guessing dummy_0 is not supported here. Any hint on this?


Thanks
