I still have a lot to learn about networks and networking but am trying to learn. Right now, i have my endpoints broken up by VLAN depending on location. so building x is VLAN 11 and building y is VLAN 12, etc. I have five different VLANS. i would like to break these up into subnets so that i can set up subzones on my gatekeeper. Will this require a complete readdressing of all of my equipment?

example, i have a codec in building x that is 192.168.11.101 and a codec in building Y that is 192.168.12.101. In order to have them in different subnets, i'll have to readdress them, right? :banana:

I would say that they already are in different subnets!

Asume you have a 24bit subnet-mask(ie 255.255.255.0) then 192.168.11.0 is one subnet and 192.168.12.0 is another.

All systems that are in one of your subnets could easily be mapped to a ZONE in your Gatekeeper, if that is what you want to acheive.

ok, bear with my ignorance here.....but my subnet mask IS 255.255.255.0.

SO.....everything in 192.168.11.0 id one subnet and then everything in 192.168.12.0 is another, 192.168.13.0 is another, etc?
