I have three clients, each one in a different subnet like this:
Client 1: 192.168.2.11/26 (network .2.0 ; broadcast .2.63)
Client 2: 192.168.2.72/26 (network .2.64 ; broadcast .2.127)
Client 3: 192.168.2.133/26 (network .2.128 ; broadcast .2.191)
I want all of the clients to be able to communicate with a file server.
Communication between clients is not required.
The question is, what IP/subnet/network should I assign to the server to achieve this goal?
Do I need a router in the middle to be able to get all three clients to communicate with the server?
Or there is a much simpler way? Communication needs to be both ways. Client-Server; Server-Client.
I would greatly appreciate some kind of help.
Is this a homework assignment? – Jim G. – 2013-07-01T17:28:50.283
Yes, its a home-school assignment! I can use any configuration I want.Though the clients still need to be in different subnets. – Gabriel Burcusel – 2013-07-01T17:36:31.367
Just for your information - http://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/10811/how-do-i-ask-and-answer-homework-questions. Can you explain what you've tried or what you think the solution is, then we can give feedback? Giving you the answer won't help you much.
