logical subnet overlaying...
hello. I'm not sure if this is the right mailing list to ask, but I hope that someone could possiably help.. I have a network with a cisco 2501 router running IOS 10.2(9), and we have a block of addresses from our internet service provider (60 addresses, 206.206.162.128, start. with 1 for network, and 1 for brodcast) we recently requested another block of 32 from our ISP, and they gave us the following: 207.66.81.96, start...with 1 for network/1 for brodcast. I asked a similar question on a mailing list before (not sure if it was this one) and was told to login to the router, then: router> en pass:..... router# conf term router <conf> int e 0 router <subif> ip address existing_ip existing_subnetmask secondary crtl-z write i tryed this, but it did not work. I also tryed replacing the exiting ip/subnet with the new one... but that did not work either... am i doing something wrong? or do i just need a 11.xx(xx) IOS ? Any help would be greatly apreciated. thanks. =-=-=-=-=-= -Kyle Donald Smith -Systems Administrator -Community Internet Access, Inc. -peaches@cia-g.com
Hi, Kyle--you'll probably get *lots* of responses to your question, but I haven't seen any yet, so I apologize if this turns out to be a duplicate. don't worry about IOS versions--this has been supported in IOS since before it was even *called* IOS! what you'll end up with is TWO "ip address" lines in your configuration, one for the primary ip address and one for the additional (which cisco calls "secondary") one. in general, the syntax is: int eth 0 0 ip addr <primary ip address> <primary ip address's mask> ip addr <second ip addr> <second ip addr's mask> secondary in your case, the lines would look like (assuming you're using the first available address in your block for your router--put the right thing in): int eth 0 0 ip addr 206.206.162.129 255.255.255.192 ! this is the config you already had ip addr 207.66.81.97 255.255.255.224 secondary ! this is your new one then user devices can use addresses out of either block on that Ethernet. Note, however, that if a user on the first subnet wants to talk to a device in the second subnet range their traffic will go to the router and then back to the Ethernet to the destination, since the source doesn't know that the destination is on the same wire as he is. Hope that helps, Brent Sweeny Indiana University On Thu, Nov 12, 1998 at 11:20:12PM -0700, Kyle D. Smith wrote:
