i previously had 2 sites, both with pfsense firewalls. site a - 192.168.125.0/26 site b - 192.168.125.64/26
i recently did away with site a, and since those ips were no longer in use, i decided to change my site b from a /26 to a /25. so i started with the pfsense box. it ip was previously 192.168.125.65, and i changed it to 192.168.125.1. saved changes. now, all the hosts at site b are also on the same 192.168.125.64/26, with ips between x.x.x.65-127. theoretically, with site a gone, they should be able to ping nothing below 64, since they are off their network. but, as soon as the pfsense interface was back up, hosts that had ips betwen x.x.x.65-127 were already able to ping 192.168.125.1, and any other hosts on the internet (even tho the gateway on their network was no longer there! .65 was unpingable). uh, i thought i understood the basic concepts of subnetting, and if i had it all wrong, then why was my previous vpn between site b and a working perfectly? or is there some devilry or trickery in the way bsd does its tcp? totally confused, jonathan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
