experience strange behavior
Previous my subnetmask was 255.255.255.0.
I extended the subnetmask to 255.255.0.0.
Because I need more IP adresses.
My servers and Clients are in the 192.168.0.x range. My Ilo's I configured in the 192.168.1.x range contected on a seperate Switch that is uplinked to the other server swithes.
I can successfuly ping from a test PC with IP 192.168.1.0 to my ILO's configured with an adres in that range. ALways!
From the servers I somethimes looses connection pinging to 192.168.1.x range.
Resetting the swith where the ILO's are connected to solves the problem again, temporalilly. But after a while the looses again connection...
My server are as stated before configured in the 192.168.0.x range / 255.255.0.0.
I've changed the swithes and experienced the same behaviou where the ILO's are connected so I don't think my swithes are bad.
Al my swithes are Intelligent Managable Cisco Swithes. Could this be a temporary problem, because some swithes still "think" my subnetmask is 255.255.255.0 instead of 255.255.0.0?

Re: experience strange behavior
Because I experience the problem with ILO's.
All my server are HP and Compaq Servers.
Another reason is because cisco hasn't such a great forum.
Not al my swithes are Cisco's but most, are...
Thank you.

Re: experience strange behavior
I think it is definitely a routing problem, not a switching problem. Has this ping problem occured before you changing the subnet mask?

Re: experience strange behavior
No before changing the subnetmask I never experienced strange network behavior.
But the weird thing is.
Previous my network range was 192.168.254.x with 255.255.255.0.
I changed everywhere i could think the subnetmask to 255.255.0.0.
(Routers, servers, DHCP ranges, IP's from the swithes, printers etc etc...)
Now I started to use 192.168.0.X adresses.
3 new ILO's are added and one test PC
192.168.0.1 till 192.168.0.4.
I can always ping from the test PC to all my ILO's.
I start the same ping from a server 192.168.254.1 to my 3 ILO's 192.168.0.1 till 192.168.0.3 and after a while 2-5 minutes the pings stops responding from this server, but still works further on my test Pc with ip adres 192.168.0.4.
I'm in the possibility to ping from 192.168.0.4 to my three ILO's. But after a while I can't ping from 192.168.254.1 to my 3 ILO's, rebooting the swithes resolves the issue for another 5 minutes.
Strange Isn't It? Could this be a problem with a swith learning its ipadresses, and became a little bit confused about the subnetmask change, I know they keep some "ip- table list" that its automaticly filled up by learning IPadresses?
Any Idea?

Re: experience strange behavior
What do liberal amounts of "route print" reveal?
Why not stick with routing between the subnets or change to a 172.x.y.z address scheme?

Re: experience strange behavior
Routing between them makes that router to be single point of faillure in case of a disaster.

Re: experience strange behavior
You are violating the basic network concepts!!!
192.168.x.x is a subnet rage CLASS C with means that you have 255 segments of 255 host, meaning that each segment cannot count more that 255 host. You need to couple segments with routers, routing from one segment to another.
I think you'd best leave the network applicances that cannot be changed from IP adres to leave them where they are. Add other network appliances to a totaly new Ip range (172.16.x.x/16) or (10.x.x.x /8).
Put a router between the two segments.
For performance you can consider setting up two routers. ARouter from A to B and a router from B to A.

Re: experience strange behavior
I don't understand if you changed mask on all hosts and switches of your network. Hosts without changes can't work in network. Don't forget you are using non standard subnet mask, so if you have some old device it can't work.
