I would guess that they actually want 1 of the following: Redundancy of some sort. Increased bandwidth to the router. -- Shawn Solomon Senior Network Engineer / Systems Design IHETS / ITN 317.263.8875 [email protected] fx317.263.8831 -----Original Message----- From: Sugar, Sylvia [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2003 3:36 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Router with 2 (or more) interfaces in same network Hi, I am curious to know if its possible to have a router with its two interfaces, say configured as, 1.1.1.1/16 and 1.1.1.2/16. Theoretically, i see nothing which can stop a router from doing this. But practically, is it of any use? And if used, then, when and why will somebody want to use such a kind of configuration? Would appreciate if somebody could enlighten me on this. Regards, Rasputin P.S. I have a customer who insists he wants to do this, without providing any explanations! ________________________________________________________________________ Want to chat instantly with your online friends?
