hi all,

I have 2 subnets, e.g. 10.10.1 and 10.10.2
netmask 255.255.254

one of the hosts belonging to 10.10.1 is located
in the 10.10.2 subnet.

q1: is ospf capable of handling this?

q2: are there other protocols to handle this?

thanks for all answers.

A 10.10.1/23 subnet is nonsensical, did you mean 10.10.0/23?

Why isn't that host getting an IP address in the subnet its connected
to? Is it getting it via DHCP or is it manually configured?

10.10.1/23 is by most firewalls considered as 10.10.0, so yes that was
meant.

the question, I repeat was: given that situation, can OSPF handle this.
The only good
answers to me are either a yes or a no.

the second question was: is any other protocol capable of handling
this. Again, only
a yes or a no will do; in case of a yes: wich ones.

Yes.

Yes.

That was not part of your original question, so you have directed
us not to answer that.
