For OUTBOUND connections? He has a /25 ... half a /24 (256 IPs) I guess. However you can't go allotting all that to user's workstations. So, allot each department a subnet of RFC1918 space and let them number themselves any way they see fit within that subnet (either using static 192.168. IPs, or running a local DHCP server if they get too big) Each subnet / department has a small quota of public IPs as well - for running their NAT, mail / web servers etc [depends on how generous Anish wants to be, and how many IPs he has] > And AFAIK there are more ranges available for private IP spaces. 10.0.0.0/8 and 172.16.0.0/12 (172.16.xxx.xxx -- 172.31.xxx.xxx) - see RFC1918 > And of course set up an DNS for all those machines..
