Building Your Own IP Addressing Scheme

If your network is isolated and will not be connected to any other networks that use IP

addressing, you can build your own IP addressing scheme. If you use your own addressing

scheme, be aware that any connection to another IP network could cause communication

problems on both networks. The IP addresses on the two networks must be compatible. Each

address must be unique.

The following documents have detailed descriptions on how to build your own IP addressing

scheme:

Example Addressing Scheme

On the next page is an example of a class C addressing scheme. Class C addresses allow up to

254 devices to be configured. If you have 254 or fewer devices to be managed on your

network, you can use the addressing scheme shown below. If you have more than 254 devices

to configure, see the referenced documents and use a class B addressing scheme. Class B

allows 65534 devices to be configured.
