NIM master with multiple client subnets

Hi Guys,

I'm building a new NIM environment with clients on 3 different subnets. I want to get some advise on what is the best approach for this kind of setup.

This is the sample network for my new NIM.

Code:
Master IP: 10.20.1.20
Client IP subnet_1: 10.20.1.21
Client IP subnet_1: 10.30.1.21
Client IP subnet_1: 10.40.1.21

Should I create 3 NIM network for this? For example:

Code:
Master IP: net_10.20.1
Client IP subnet_1: net_10.20.1
Client IP subnet_1: net_10.30.1
Client IP subnet_1: net_10.40.1

Do I also need to configure 3 different IP's for my NIM master (ie. on "ifconfig -a" output, should I see 3 IP's there?)?

I want to make sure that I can restore my clients on different network without issue. Appreciate any inputs.
