I have a UNIX box (SCO 5.0.2) with two (2) NIC cards. One card (NIC1) talks to a network 57.14.65.x/27. The other card NIC2) talks to users on 57.14.103.x and 57.14.105.x with subnet mask of 255.255.0.0. If I set NIC2 to this subnet mask (255.255.0.0) it seems like the NIC traffic is now going to this one so we changed the NIC2 subnet mask to 255.255.0.0 which now works with 57.14.103.x and 57.14.105.x but I loose the 57.14.65. If I change the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0, everything work but I loose communication with the users at 57.14.105.x.
NIC1: IP Address: 57.14.65.166 subnet mask: 255.255.255.224
NIC2: IP Address: 57.14.103.220 subnet mask: 255.255.0.0
We know that NIC1 settings work OK so we don't want to mess around NIC1. We replaced NIC2 and now the system is having this problem. Any suggestions are welcomed.
If you configure with 255.255.0.0 and 255.255.255.224 as netmasks on the networks you mentioned, you are defining one as overlapping the other, so the system behaves as you have already seen, 255.255.0.0 means the every machine with an address starting with 57.14 is on this subnet, all 67840 of them.
You need to know the correct size for the netmask on that subnet, it's probably something like 255.255.252.0 that you're looking for, but you really need to find out from your networking people what size the subnet is.
Yes, reborg is right, there is no meaning of having a network ID of 57.14.103.x with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 since it'll match every thing after 57.14.x.x, here is proof for this:
Since you are trying to connect two networks with one IP address, its not possible with a subnet mask of 24, you can go for a 20 bit subnet mask e.g. 57.17.96.x subnetmask 255.255.240.0 and here is the data:
It'll match 57.14.96-111.x like you are trying to match 57.14.103.x and 57.14.105.x, hope it helps.
I have a made my squid proxy, I now have add another nic card to an old CPU using Ubuntu server 12.04. I have seen another post similar however I am new and did not understand some of it. Something about redirecting IP address and IP table?
I don't know how to do this.:confused: (9 Replies)
I found an old post that talks about 2 nice cards and it is driven by the IP address .... but I didn't understand it because the 2 people skipped information for me the newbie..
Can someone help me... I have the proxy server setup and I believe I have enabled the 2nd nic card, I just need one... (1 Reply)
Hi,
What is the best reference that gives in detail on nic cards configuration , assigning multiple ip addresses to a single interface, netlink library etc and all basic stuff at this level..?

Hello,
I am trying to move an HP UX from one locaion to another. The new location don't have any Fiber switches.

We have a setup of two nodes which has two NIC cards in each. One is built in and another is D-Link (external NIC card). We are unable to ping to the external NIC cards in both. Eg: Node A has two IPs 192.168.1.10 (eth0) and 192.168.2.10 (eth1) and Node B has two IPs 192.168.1.20 (eth0) and... (3 Replies)

I have 4 subnets we are backing across. trying to keep traffic on their subnets. I only have one route statment should I add more.

Hello
I have 2 machines with 3 NIC cards.
When I setup veritas, I receive this message:
e1000g1 has an IP address configured on it. It could be a public NIC on ken.
Are you sure you want to use e1000g1 for the first private heartbeat link?
As if e1000g1 should not have an IP address.... (2 Replies)
I need to add a PCI NIC to a sunblade 100 running solaris 8. Im new to this and was hoping someone could give me some card names and models which will work for this system and has a driver for this sparc system.

Our shops server runs SCO Openserver 5 release 5. It has two network cards in it (one on 10.0.0.6 and one on 90.0.0.99). When I run scoadmin and look at the network settings it show both my 3com network cards and a loop back driver http://theentertainer.com/james/untitled.jpg
