Assigning multiple IP addresses to an interface

Dec 21, 2009 6 Replies

Hello,



does Cisco IOS support assigning multiple IP addresses (out of different subnets) to one ethernet interface respectively VLAN (similar to what *BSD and Linux support)? I'm using IOS 12.4 on an 877W in case that matters.



Kind regards


Usualy in 2500, 2600 and 3600 series you can declare your main IP

ip 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0

And the rest as secondaries

ip 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0 secondary .

Matthias, A&A have an IRC channel which you can get lots of help. There are a few folk there running 877W's.

Yes, you can assign a lot of IP addresses from different subnets as secondary IP addresses.

It depends on the IOS Feature set how many VLAN you can bring up on a

870 router. The Advancedsecurity package ony can 1 or 2 VLAN on the Fastethnert ports.

Andrews & Arnold, it's his very technically aware ISP.

Yes, that works like a charm.

Thanks a lot
