Just will need some advice on how to add the second NIC and how to make the connections. I assume a few lines in the extention.conf file and a few fake node #s correct?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The intranet network is made up of a netmask of 255.255.255.248 and each site has a router that talks to a central switch and allows all ports to pass through. Each site can talk to each other by the way if needed, but I figure just bringing the main communications back to the main node in Margate will be the best choice.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>So if anyone is up to the task to lend me a hand, I will appreciate it very much.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks and 73<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Lu,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>KA4EPS<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><img width=523 height=602 id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image001.png@01CC4EBF.0A1F1130"><o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
