In CoolFigs Router Wizard Step 5 when should I use the All Addresses option (Class C addresses only)?

0

If you are defining a LAN configuration which consists of a number of off-site subnets in the same Class C range as the local LAN then the Class C address range can become very fragmented. This may require multiple entries in the Routing Table to ensure that all stations are addressable from all locations. It is very easy to make a mistake. Selecting the ‘All Addresses’ option allows CoolFig to add the minimum Routes to ensure that all Hosts are addressable on the LAN (CoolFig will occasionally use non-contiguous NetMask when performing this operation).
