- Can I have two subnets physically separated by a different net?
-
- Let's say net A is 150.150, with subnets A1=150.150.10 and A2=150.150.20
- and net B is 75. I have a bunch of hosts running RIP, and some CISCOs:
-
- ----A1-----(CISCO)..(CISCO)========B==========(CISCO)-------A2------
-
- The reason I'm doing this is that I'm changing the whole network from
- the B address to subnets of the A address. The Ciscos communicate
- via IGRP and redistribute RIP. All hosts run routed in quiet mode.
-
- The Cisco manual talks about using secondary addresses to accomplish
- this (I think), but their example is pitiful.
-
- I attempted to give the CISCO interfaces on net B secondary addresses
- that conform to the A network. It didn't work.
-
- The biggest problem, (maybe), is that the routing tables of the hosts
- on net B list the A network and NOT the A1 and A2 subnets. (Currently
- all but the A2 subnet is in place).
-
- Any hints would be appreciated.
