<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have an Asterisk server running REL 4 with two
NICs. </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>One NIC has a 192.168.1.x IP address and is
connected to a POE switch with Polycom phones that have 192.168.1.x IP
addresses.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The other NIC has a 172.17.x.x IP address connected
to a router. The router is connected to the Internet.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If the Internet goes down or the cable between the
172.17.x.x. NIC is disconnected, the phones start to lose their connection to
asterisk. Why? What have I screwed up?</FONT></DIV>
