Bob/Andrew,
From: "Andrew Gregg" <DREW@uk.ac.ulst.infc.CAUSEWAY> Date: Tue, 22 Mar 1994 14:29:25 GMT Subject: Re: Class C subnetting and Novell TCP/IP Reply-To: A.Gregg@uk.ac.ulst
Novell Fileserver routing DOES support class C subnetting. Until this earlier this year we had a Novell Fileserver routing between a subnetted class C address...
Class C subnetting using novell netware requires at least 2 bits mask bits in the class to allow for subnetworking.
therefore our mask was FF.FF.FF.C0 and our IP numbers were assigned... nnn.nnn.nnn.128 to 190 for one sub net and 65-126 for the other.
Thanks - this is exactly what I was looking for. Can I presume on your helpfulness one more bit, and ask if there are any particular version/revision levels this is available under, just in case they are running old software ? It would also be nice to get the definitive answer on the LAN Workplace product too, though if that is broken I guess proxy ARP is a possibility.
Anyhow, I suggest that:
(a) Keith rejects the reason, saying that it's understood that Novell do support this subnetting....
(b) if said customers persist perhaps Daniel could pursue this with his Novell contact to get a definitive statement?
Bob
Sounds fine to me. Thanks to everyone who responded, Keith
