Hello, guys how are you doing? i don't have more experience for the configuration of a windows server 2003 specially with IP Address but i know a little about IP Address classes, before i ask a question let me give you my idea in detail
i am working in small office and we have 10 computers connected to server 2003 and the server IP = 192.168.0.1 which is class "C" and the subnet = 255.255.255.0 and there is no get way, the DNS = 192.168.0.1. right now, what i understand from this is the IP Address and the DNS server are the same, by looking this configuration i thought that the IP Address and the DNS of the server are always the same. suddenly, i go to another office to meet my friend when i see their configuration of the server it is different just like that serverIP= 192.168.1.100, SUBNET = 255.255.255.0, and G.W = 192.168.1.1, and the DNS SERVER = 192.168.1.45, now my question is,
1. what is the difference between this two servers, the 1st server the IP and the DNS are the same, while the 2nd server it's IP and DNS are different?
2. if it is possible according my configuration, suppose i have a gate way = 192.168.0.1 so, can i configure like this? serverIP= 192.168.0.2, subnet the same, G.W = 192.168.0.1 and DNS = 192.168.0.2 is this possible?
please guys help me i am so confused about this IP Address?
thank you very much :-
