Hi all,
One of my networks is switching to CenturyLink for their ISP. When you
order 1 static IP they give you an IP, a 255.255.255.255 subnet mask but
no gateway. I will put the modem in transparent bridging mode.
I'm going to have to re-configure my CARPed firewalls remotely before we
make the switch but I'm not sure in this case what, if anything, I would
put in /etc/mygate. The same IP address they are giving me?
The other alternative is to order a block of 8 IPs (5 usable) , in which
case I'll get a gateway but I don't need an additional 4 addresses and
they don't need the additional expense.
Sorry for the dumb question but I won't have a chance to test this at
all before I have someone switch the ethernet cable from one modem to
the other.
Thanks for any insight!
