Hi,

Please, do the DOS OS (Version 6) support the "subnet" configuration.

For example: configuring a gateway 10.12.16.1 with a netmask 255.255.255.128

Best regards

If you mean MS-DOS 6.xx then by default it does not come with any networking software.

Therefore what networking software have you installed ??

Thanks for the answers, just i want to know if the version of MS-DOS apply some restrictions when i configure network (especially the "netmask": to introduce subnet id bits)independently of the implementation of the IP stack.

Best regards

MS-DOS 6 does not have any Networking Software built in, therefore any restrictions are in the software you are using to create a network.

Therefore what Networking Software are you taliking about, or are we supposed to guess ?

Surely that would be in the DEC Pathworks Documentation and nothing whatsoever to do with MS-DOS !!

Hi,

-------- f0/0--------------- f0/1 --------
| Host |=======|Cisco Switch |=======|Server|
-------- --------------- --------

Host: 10.11.12.13/25
f0/0: 10.11.12.1/25 (Default Gateway)

Server: 10.11.12.200/25
f0/1: 10.11.12.129 (Default gateway of the server)

The host's configuration is mentioned below:

%PATHRESEAU%\TCPIP.EXE /ip:10.11.12.13 /mask:255.255.255.128 /gw:10.11.12.1

The TCP/IP is executed successfully without an error message, but "netstat" command didn't show the gateway parameter, as it wasn't defined.

I hope that now the problems is clear for you, and i wait for any idea to advance.

Best regards
