Hi,
Recommendations please for a router that will help me get more IP addresses
on the network?
LAN currently is 192.168.10.0
2 additional networks (VPN) using 192.168.60.0 and 192.168.100.0
I need more IP addresses on the LAN.
I've got a likely candidate to move onto the new range in the form of a
comms cabinet that servers an office with about 40 PCs. I thought if I put
that lot onto another range , eg 192.168.25.0 that will free up 40 in the
192.168.10.0 range.
Question is which router?
Why not just expand your local subnet, like to 192.168.8.0/21? Leave the default
gateway at 192.168.10.1 and change your DHCP server to hand out new addresses, or at
least revised subnet mask. Then change the static-assigned subnet masks on your old
machines at your leisure. Router not required, just a decent L2 switch.
