Hi all,
In a network with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, can the default gateway be anything other than the first 3 octets of the IP address ending in 1? For instance, if the IP of the router is 72.156.28.22, wouldn’t the default gateway have to be 72.156.28.1? I have a situation where I have digital cameras at a remote site. I have the internal IP of the camera being forwarded through the router and I have been able to view these cameras remotely. Every so often, these cameras are not accessable. I can still get into the router’s interface and ping the router’s IP. When I go into the interface and check the status tab, it says that the IP is 72.156.28.22 , the SN mask is 255.255.255.0, and the DF gateway is 65.14.251.37. Does this make sense?
Thanks,
Frank
