- I have an elementary question that I hope someone can help me
- with/explain. We are in the process of implementing a WAN and are
- interested primarily in routing IPX and IP protocols. (Using an AGS+ /4
- and an MGS /4). I've got the Appletalk and IPX routing figured out but
- I'm not to sure about the IP routing.
-
- I'm from the novell environment where a cable segment running IPX
- protocol takes on a net number as an ID and I'm told this is not the
- same when running IP. A call to cisco tech support told me that my first
- problem was trying to do this:
-
- Me 142.60.254.1 <-- Router --> 142.60.254.2
-
- when what I really needed was:
-
- Me 142.60.254.1 <-- Router --> 142.60.253.1
-
- My question is, does this work when using multiple subnets on one
- side of the router as follows or does the port on the router need an
- address in each subnet that you want to route?
-
- Me 142.60.254.1 <-- Router --> 142.60.253.1 - 254
- 142.60.252.1 - 254
- 142.60.001.1 - 254
-
- Thanks in advance for any help on this.
