Why not just change your netmask to 255.255.0.0? That should be more IPs
than you will EVER use! J

Subject: Need more IP addresses

 

I am in need of more IP addresses on my network.

 

My current network looks like this:

192.168.1.x 

255.255.255.0

 

I am using 248 IP's currently, so I have very little expansion available.  I
do see the potential to increase in the following year, so I had better get
my butt thinking about this soon.  Plus I have Christmas and New Year's
holidays that I could work with no one on our network for 3 full days.

 

I am thinking about changing my subnet to something like 255.255.254.0 or
255.255.252.0.  Would this be a good way, or would I be better adding an
additional router and just creating a new 255.255.255.0 network on
192.168.2.x?

 

I guess my question is which is the "correct" way?
