2 subnets 1 lan

I currently have a 10.0.0.1 subnet and would like to add a second subnet.
we are currently using win2k server environment with an R910 router.
I have added the second subnet into the router (10.1.1.1-10.1.1.254) and
have
played a little with superscoping... but I still cant seem to ping the
computer
on the second subnet. do I need to have two nics in the win2k server, or
is there another way of doing it?

any help would greatly be appreciated.

thanks

Hi,

Is your router also a default gateway for your Win2K server? If not, you
need to specify a route on your Win2K server for 10.1.x.x network.

What subnet mask did you use?

Is it a LAN router (that is, a "real" router) or is it just an "Internet
Appliance" running NAT that is called a "router" by the vendors (they love
to butcher the dictionary)?

There is no Superscoping. Superscoping is used to combine scopes to behave
as a single scope for a single subnet. When you have multiple subnets you
create multiple scopes, one for each subnet.

Not unless it is going to be the router,...but you said you already had one
of those. But if the "router" is simply and Internet Appliance (not a real
router), then the Win2k Server can be used as a "real" Router by using two
NICs and follow the instructions in this article. This assumes things are
physically cabled properly, all the software configuring in the world won't
overcome a bad physical topology design.
