Question : How to route to PC in same physical network but a different IP Range?

Hi,

My IP Range is 10.x.x.x but I have one machine connected to my switch stack in the 172.x.x.x network. How do I get access to this machine from a PC on the 10.x.x.x network? I see my main router is forwarding the requests out to the ISP.

Answer : How to route to PC in same physical network but a different IP Range?

If you give a machine 2 ip addresses, one from each subnet ( one gateway), it will be able to communicate via ip address to the second subnet.

To do this:
Control panel
Network connections
Right click on the network connection
Properties
highlight internet protocol tcp/ip  (version 4, not 6 if both are listed)
properties
Make sure that original set of ip addresses is set
click advanced
add an ip address from the second subnet and the subnet mask
ok, ok close.
