HI

I explain for everyone. if I have network where one pc assign IP 192.168.10.15 if same ip assign another pc then we get conflict message.

Now what happent same sceniro in network router.

example:

I have three router

router1: wan s0/0: ip 203.221.192.5

Lan e0/0: 192.168.10.20

router 2: wan s0/0: ip 203.221.192.6

Lan e0/0: 192.168.11.20

now router3:

wan s0/0: ip 203.221.193.5

when assign lan interface ip I put same ip in mistake and assign

Lan e0/0: 192.168.11.20

so now same ip assign differnt router. now my question is it is show message duplicate IP in console message of router ????.

I think you r understand my question .

thanks

Friend,

It will not show a duplicate message as the networks are seperated by another discontigous segment.

The problem you will be facing with this will be routing for that subnet.

R3 will think that the traffic for the subnet needs to be sent to its connected interface rather than to the other side of the wan and thus will black hole all traffic
