Can two interfaces have same subnet?

When there are 2 interfaces on the same subnet there is no assurance as to which interface will be used to transmit traffic and the machine will accept traffic for either IP on either interface. This is because in Linux the IP address belongs to the host and is not associated with the interface.

How do I connect to the same subnet?

How to Connect Computers That Are on 2 Different Subnets

  1. Connect the computers to the network.
  2. Connect the routers to each other.
  3. Enable a routing protocol in each subnet’s router.
  4. Allow time for the routing tables to update.

Can VLANs have the same subnet?

No, VLANs don’t require different subnets. Different subnets require different subnet addresses if they ever need to be able to route and/or talk to each other) and by extension if one VLAN wants to talk to a different VLAN it must use different addresses so we can make a routing decision to the right place.

How can you tell if two IP addresses are the same subnet?

When comparing two IP address/subnet combinations, the addresses must match for any section where the subnet value is 255. For a subnet of 255.255. 255.0, we expect to see the first three sections of the IP address match (reading left to right) if they are in the same subnet.

What does same subnet mean?

What is subnetting? A subnet is just a range of IP addresses. All the devices in the same subnet can communicate directly with one another without going through any routers. In IPv4, a network interface is connected to only one subnet and has only one IP address.

Is subnet mask always the same?

Subnet masks always work from left to right. Devices are said to be within the same subnet if their IP Address starts with the same digits, but ends with a different set of digits. If the subnet mask is 255.255. 255.0, then the first three octets of all devices must be the same.

Can VLANs share the same gateway?

Two VLANs can’t have the same gateway…

How is a VLAN different from a subnet?

VLAN is a logical LAN that contains broadcasts within itself, and only hosts belonged to that VLAN will see those broadcasts. Subnet is an IP address range of IP addresses that help hosts communicate over layer 3. VLAN allows us to create different logical and physical networks.

Can devices with different subnet masks communicate?

A subnet is just a range of IP addresses. All the devices in the same subnet can communicate directly with one another without going through any routers. Suppose my IP address is 192.168. 101.15 and my subnet mask is 255.255.

Does IP belong to subnet?

An IP address is divided into four parts, separated by dots. The Subnet Mask determines how much of the IP address that denominates which IP network the address belongs to. The rest of the IP address can then be used for computers and other hosts on the IP network.

How do I route two networks together?

All you have to do in the router that connects the two networks it this:

  1. Configure each of two Ethernet ports into different VLANs.
  2. Assign each VLAN an IP address in one of your two networks.
  3. Connect each port to the network that port’s VLAN has an IP address in.
  4. Make sure the router is configured to do routing.
