HI,
I have a free 2,5Gb NIC Port on my PC and on my Unraid.
The Router has no 2,5Gb ports so PC and Unraid go to the router with their standard 1Gb NICs.
To get a nice local speed between PC and Unraid I want to crossover them. I have quick question about the Subnet for the crossover:
My LAN subnet is 192.168.0.x/24 with DHCP beginning behind .50 - so i could easily assign static IPs -BUT- isn't it a bit confusing for Windows, if the Crossover IP is within the same subnet?
Wouldn't it be wiser, if I gave the 2.5Gb NICs a new subnet?
Because then, Windows would instantly know "hey, this IP is not my standard subnet, it is from my second NIC which has 2.5Gb capacity...."
Sry for a maybe dumb question
