Hi, Mike Egglestone écrivait : > Basically, is it OK networking practise to setup my eth1 as follows?: > Network 10.0.0.0 > IP address 10.0.0.1 > Netmask 255.255.254 > broadcast 10.0.1.255
You may like to know that 10.0.0.0 is a class A network, so you can legally use a netmask of 255.0.0.0 and a broadcast of 10.255.255.255 without any problem! For more information look for RFC 1918 (search Google), section 3. >From this, you'll be able to use a DHCP address range from 10.0.0.20 to 10.0.1.254 as well as from 10.100.0.0 to 10.100.255.255, assuming that your DHCP service is able to handle 65536 addresses! ;-) Regards, J.C. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
