asked on

sub netting

currently I have:
192.168.94.0 /24

as per router, dhcp has 192.168.94.200 - 254. isn't that 54 usable ips available ?

only less than 25 network devices (workstation/servers/network printers) on this subnet.

my client wants to increase to 100 available ips... does that make sense?

please advise,

thank you,

why you aren't using a 192.168.94.0 / 24 and give them the full 255 and be done with it. I can see no reason to not make the full 255 available. It doesn't hurt.

I am using the 192.168.94.0, just that it starts from 200-254.

would it work if I statically assigned from 1-199?
you understand about making address reservations for static ip addresses?
yes... have done that with network printers/scanners and servers as well, on the dhcp server scoop.  is that what you referring to?

thanks, Qlemo.
ok. so here is what i did:
leave the pool 200-254 alone and just statically assigned any new devices.  for now, i will stick with this.

thanks,
all..
thanks for the hints....
