The important thing is that the virtual address must be in the same subnet
as the end stations that will use the address as their default gateway.
Theoretically, I guess the HSRP routers' actual interface addresses could
be in a different subnet, but Cisco doesn't support that. Cisco's
assumption is that you are migrating from a network where the interface
addresses were the default gateways. I can't think of any actual problem it
would cause to put these addresses in a different subnet once you've
adopted HSRP, but it seems like a bad idea from a design and documentation
point of view. I think you would get a config error if you tried it anyway.
