I have been assigned an additional /29 block of IP's and am trying to decide how to configure the router. I currently have a /29 with 1 address assigned to the interface and then the other 4 addresses are in individual NAT Pools for different Vlans. My issue is how do I handle the default route with 2 /29's and I would like to avoid using an address from my second pool on the interface. I have a single Gigabit Ethernet connection handed to my from the provider. Here are the relevant parts of the config:
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/0

The new subnet is 204.xxx.xxx.xx6/29
What I would like to do is put the new addresses in nat pools as well, but if I setup nat pools for the new subnet and add a gateway I'm not sure this will work. Is there any way to make this work without putting an address from the new subnet on an interface? This is also at a remote site 3 hours away to make things evern more difficult.

Hi,
The is no need for another default route. The original default route (ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 69.xxx.xxx.xx3) is sufficient, as you are pointing to the same provider. Once you add the new segment to the pool, you need to contact the provider and make sure they are actually advertising the new segment they gave you (204.xxx.xxx.xx6/29). You can also go to a looking glass site and select "IPv4 BGP summary" and see if you can see the new IP segment is being advertised to Internet.

Hi,
Your configuration should work. Add 204.xxx.xxx.xx6/29 to the nat pool and configure nat. Your ISP will add a route pointing to your WAN ip address for the 204.xxx.xxx.xx6/29 network.
Thanks

I added a second default route:
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 204.xxx.xxx.xxx7
and change the pool for vlan 10 to:
ip nat pool Vlan10 204.xxx.xxx.xxx8 204.xxx.xxx.xxx2 netmask 255.255.255.248
Once I make those changed I can no longer ping out from vlan 10. I think there has to be more to it than this. Without an ip from that subnet on an interface it has no idea where to send the traffic. However I tried:
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 GigabitEthernet0/0
and that had no effect.

I looks like it took a minute to take affect but it is working! If someone could take a minute to explain how this works I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

What is your question?
If you are referring to the second public IP segment. You don't need to have an interface in that segment for it to be advertised. As a matter of fact for most larger organization, the provider connects to the customer using a /30 and also provide them a separate segment for using for NAT, FTP servers, DMZ, Internal network, etc.. and as long as that segment is advertised by the provider, the Internet can reach the segment via the provider.
