I'm not saying that your way won't work. To tell you the truth, I don't really understand your method. I've just been through a lot of migrations myself in the past with customers, and creating new VLANs and moving users over to them is the typical way it is accomplished.

Hence why we purchased the types of switches What I listed was a suggestion in which I asked if that way to would work. I know you can create another vlan sub-interface and start moving the the new addresses. I was thinking of the idea that if the switches can accept more than 2 default routes then why wont that way work What is wrong with dual default routes? As i understand according to how these works there will be a primary default etc regards, seun >From: "Reimer, Fred" >To: "gab S.E jones" , [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: RE: switch default gateway question [7:72288] >Date: Tue, 15 Jul 2003 10:11:24 -0400 > >Say what? > >Why don't you just create additional VLANs for the new address space(s) and >move PC's to the new VLANs as their addresses are changed?
