I'm trying to help an ISP get set up and kindly request comments on the procedure. We have a T1 with a class C block of static IPs and want to divide up the static IPs in blocks of 32 and control who gets what.
Since we need 5 blocks, I thought about getting 5 routers and constructing the following 5 networks (private IPs substituted for the real IPs, reserved range up to 10.10.115.31): router 1 IP allotment 10.10.115.32/27 network 10.10.115.32 gateway 10.10.115.33 server IP 10.10.115.34 open (usable) 10.10.115.35-62 broadcast (not usable) 10.10.115.63 netmask 255.255.255.224 router 2 IP allotment 10.10.115.64/27 network 10.10.115.64 gateway 10.10.115.65 server IP 10.10.115.66 open (usable) 10.10.115.67-94 broadcast (not usable) 10.10.115.95 netmask 255.255.255.224 router 3 IP allotment 10.10.115.96/27 network 10.10.115.96 gateway 10.10.115.97 server IP 10.10.115.98 open (usable) 10.10.115.99-126 broadcast (not usable) 10.10.115.127 netmask 255.255.255.224 router 4 IP allotment 10.10.115.128/27 network 10.10.115.128 gateway 10.10.115.129 server IP 10.10.115.130 open (usable) 10.10.115.131-158 broadcast (not usable) 10.10.115.159 netmask 255.255.255.224 router 5 IP allotment 10.10.115.160/27 network 10.10.115.160 gateway 10.10.115.161 server IP 10.10.115.162 open (usable) 10.10.115.163-190 broadcast (not usable) 10.10.115.191 netmask 255.255.255.224 However, the Adtran folks tell me the NetVanta 3205 CSU/DSU coming off the T1 has the ability to create zones that will circumvent the use of separate routers when used in conjunction with the managed switch and VLANs. What is the best way to achieve the desired results?
