What are the rules for IP address assignment?
If the network is constructed with TCP/IP protocol, a unique IP address is
required for each piece of network equipment. The following are basic rules of
the assignment.
Rule1
Do not configure the same IP address to the network equipment
in the same network group. Each piece of equipment must be
assigned a unique IP address.
If the IP address is set [192.168.x.x], the Subnet Mask should be
set [255.255.255.0] for example.
Rule2
The start address [xxx.xxx.xxx.0] and the last address
[xxx.xxx.xxx.255] of the IP address must not be assigned to any
other equipment. These address numbers are reserved.
Rule3
The IP address must correlate to a network number. If network
numbers are different between the equipment, they cannot estab-
lish communications each other. In this case, the router is placed
in the networks to make the routing.
