Routing seperate Networks
Hi,
It's been a very long time for me with this stuff and need some help.
I am trying to seperate my users from my servers based on the existing network setup.
currently everything here is on 10.2.99.x 255.255.255.0 so we are running out of IP's for our infrastucture devices (servers, printer etc.etc.)
What I was thinking was add another network 10.3.99.0 255.255.255.0
Am on the right track, or am I over complicating it? If I am on the right track using cisco devices how do I get the routers 10.3.99.1 and 10.2.99.1 to talk.
Thanks in advance.

Do I need to go through all that?
What if I instead give all my users 10.2.95.x could that work if my Servers will accept that?

You have to give some kind of route for the switches to know how to pass traffic. This is the proper way and I would not recommend any other way.

and you can add routes
I cant rememer the exact command in Cisco but it should be something similar to:
ip route 10.2.99.0 255.255.255.0 .3 gateway
ip route 10.3.99.0 255.255.255.0 .2 gateway
he gateway will be whatever is doing the router so most likely the switch.
