Trying to apply what I am learning in the CCNA class, I am running into some confusion regarding some basic concepts. I am trying to apply what I learned to our network which has a few colocated customers to whom I want to assign ips with subnets.
We have a /23 assigned to us, let us call it 63.142.136.0/23. We have broken it up into (assigned on our router's etherne port): Internet address is 63.142.136.1/24 Secondary address 63.142.137.1/24 Also, "show ip route static" shows (among other things): S 63.142.136.0/23 is directly connected, Null0 S* 0.0.0.0/0 [1/0] via 66.100.223.193 Now here is where my confusion begins. I want to assign a subnet to a customer, let us say 63.142.136.32/27 which will be 32 - 63 with 32 being the network address and 63 being the broadcast. I will then add ip route 63.142.136.32 255.255.255.224 On his Windows server, do I assign 63.142.136.33 as the default gateway? and now do I need to add a route to route his subnet to 63.142.136.1? Am I confused about the Gateway vs. network address? If I could understand this, I think I would understand everything about routing. :-) Well maybe not, but I sure would feel better about it...
