I think, you can use virtual address (especially in Cisco, ip address ... secondary) for new network. For example, router has 206.206.162.190 as local network's ethernet port. If you want to use new address block at same network, you can assign 207.66.81.174 to same port's secondary. It's syntax is simple. If your cisco router port is e0, you can use this serial command as reference. router> ena Password: <-- enter enable password router# config inter e0 ip address 207.66.81.174 255.255.255.224 secondary exit exit router# wr It is simple. If the customer's network has one backbone, this method can handle their network as seperate two network. ;> And every computer set their subnet's router IP address for their gateway address. Is it clear? If you have problem with this, please e-mail me. ;> HyunSeog Ryu Kyle D. Smith wrote:
First of all, i know that this is not the best place to ask this quesiton, but it is the only place that can quickly come to mind...
I have a customer who has a block of 62 ip addresses (206.206.162.130 -> 206.206.162.190 and one for network/brodcast). They are current expanding their network, and need around 30 more ip addresses. I went ahead and allocated them the following IP address pool (207.66.81.144 -> 207.66.81.174 with network/brodcast address.) I attempted to use the new address on a Apple Macintosh (PowerMac 6500/75) and it erturned an error message saying that the router was not on the subnet, and that it could not use the new address. I know I should remember how to fix that, but I am not sure what to do.... Any help or guidence would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
