I'm so used to configuring Cisco WAP's for our Cisco switches and vlans etc etc, I'm not positive on what I am trying to do but here's what I am trying to do. Well haven't tried yet but will be doing this tomorrow.
One of my users has a network setup for certain machinery in part of our plant. It runs a 89.******* network, no router, no gateway, no dns, Just 4 machines, with 4 statics IPs and the matching subnet.
All machines can communicate of course. But he is wanted to be able to communicate with the devices from his computer which is on my internal regular VLAN which doesn't touch any of these computers network at all.
I figured why not throw a standard 5 port switch and connect a WAP in to this enviornment and configure it with a random static IP of 89. **** whatever, and set up a SSID so the user can connect wirelessly to this network without having to run a cable the distance inside the office from the plant.
This is possible correct? With a regular linksys access point or something?
Thanks
