Good day
I've been scratching my head with this one for a little while. I have a /29 from my uk based ISP, and want to create the following scenario at home :
internet - cisco 837 ---+ | +--- Internal Natted network [10.1.1.0/24] | +--- External DMZ, routed, public [81.1.1.0/29]
It looks like an IOS update for this family of routers allows you to do just that[*] - The release notes for 12.3(7) show that one can create a second Ethernet interface, Ethernet2 to apply different rules to two seperate physical networks, but I was hoping that I'd be able to hang the two logically seperate networks on the same physical bit of wire?
Essentially this would mean that 10.1.1.254 and 81.1.1.7, say, the default routes for the internal and external network are the same physical interface on the Cisco 837.
Is this going to be possible? If not, I'll have to try to IOS upgrade, but as a newbie, this isn't something I relish trying. :)
