Ralph, how do you intend on getting traffic *OUT* of this subnet?
Static arp entries on all the hosts? Proxy arp? It seems like that would
be a lot more work and much more failure prone in the long run.
Step up to the plate, configure a secondary address, and let
normal routing protocols do their job. There is no compelling reason to
implement an intentionally broken network, just to prove to us all how
quirky you are.
Thanks,
