The gateway will work like IPF (Firewall) and NAT. Is it wrong? Steve wrote: I just noticed that your ISP has assigned you a /28 prefix. Is all of this 255.255.255.240 yours, or are you on a shared network segment? If it is yours, and you plan on using it, you'll want to set things up like the following. If it is all yours (88.18 - 88.30) and you didn't request it, I'd sure be interested to know who is giving away /28's nowadays when the client didn't even request it ;) Yes, it's mine. I'm paying just for 3 static addresses 18-20. I plan other static addresses to use for other plans. So i'll need 2 more NIC's for gateway? I think that my ISP uses the 2nd image. In my room is a switch. In our home is switch. 3 homes from mine is a gateway. I don't know what else there is. P.S.
