Suppose we have the following configuration :
BROADCAST=192.168.91.255
HWADDR=00:1D:09:FE:DA:04
IPADDR=192.168.91.250
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.91.0
BROADCAST=10.10.191.255
DNS1=10.10.15.161
DNS2=10.10.18.36
GATEWAY=10.10.191.254
HWADDR=00:1D:09:FE:DA:04
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=10.39.191.0
We have assigned two IP Addresses belonging to two different subnets to the same network interface. How does such a scenario work? How can a single computer be connected to two different network IDs?
And is it possible to assign different IP addresses with two different subnet masks to the same network interface? What are its implications?
