- Swarthmore College has just installed an AGS+ with several MEC-6 Ethernet
- cards and we are routing TCP/IP using IGRP with an 8-bit subnet mask. On
- one of our Ethernet ports we have a gateway computer (Apollo) attached to a
- token ring with about a dozen other Apollos using TCP/IP on the Token Ring.
- The gateway worked fine in our previous bridged environment using routed
- with static routing- the question is how do I setup the Cisco to provide
- Internet access to the token ring? Can I specify static routes on the
- Cisco to accomplish this? Do I want to assign the token ring it's own
- 8-bit subnet or try to breakup the host address space on the current subnet
- to do this?
-
- If my ethernet is 130.58.67.0 and the gateway is 130.58.67.10 and the token
- ring is assigned a new 8-bit subnet of 130.58.68.0,
- will the following static route do the trick:
-
- ip route 130.58.68.0 130.58.67.10
-
- Will the Cisco know to route traffic for 130.58.68.0 to the gateway
- computer via the cisco port associated with 130.58.67.0 in this case?
