Hi everyone! I know this subject was already discussed here but I still have any doubts there I'd like to put here. I about to join several building AppleTalks but, before that, I'm planning to readdress all the networks. I'm following the idea given in Apple Internet Router manual of giving intelligent addresses to networks. Apparently, and by the way they present the problem on the book, everything is real simple however, I just starting to guess a great number of possible exceptions to my addressing rules. The good solution I've seen at the beginning is now becoming an head hake. On your experience of addressing multiple networks what is the best advise you can give me ? Should I define a Phase II net range at the begging of the each building addresses table and reserve numbers sequentially for LocalTalks without trying to store information like floor and room number, type of network, etc. ? Does anyone of you see disadvantages on using non sequential LT addrs ? What can be the real problems of using large PhaseII net ranges for ethertalk networks ?
