- Consider the following situation that might occur within a firm's
- enterprise wide internet.
-
- subnets<->Router<->Bridged backbone network<->Router<->subnets
-
- The bridged backbone network has IP addresses within a flat,
- unsubnetted Class B address space. The other routers and their
- associated networks have IP addresses within a single subnetted
- Class B address space.
-
- Does OSPF and/or IGRP support disconnected subnets of the
- same Class B in this fashion? Can this work under any
- circumstances? If
- not, what are the alternatives, going to lots of Class C address
- around the edges?
-
- Thanks
- Bob Weber
