Can a switch have multiple subnets?

You can use the same switch for multiple subnets, but you need to you VLAN’s that is what they are there for, unless you switch won’t support VLAN’s. First time your switch gets a MAC address back that has an IP addresses in more than one subnet it’s gonna freak out.

Is it possible to have multiple subnets in the same VLAN?

Yes, it is possible to have multiple subnets in the same vlan. You would just assign multiple subnets under the same vlan interface but it is not a common practice at all. The cleanest way is to have one subnet per vlan to keep you broadcast domains separate.

Can you put a secondary IP address on a VLAN?

You can do the /22 as you stated, or you can put a secondary ip address on the vlan interface: A vlan is a logically segmented network, so when you have an ip address on the svi, that’s the subnet that svi will support. If it sees traffic from a different subnet come in on that vlan, the switch/router will drop the traffic. 11-28-2013 08:16 AM
