Solved: Best Practice to amalgamate/merge two or more networks?

Hi,

I'm looking for Design Guide or Best Practice to merge two or more networks. Both of them use similar overlapping 10.x 172.x and 192.x networks and I'm actually trying to stay away from NAT if possible. Any URL or books recommendation?

Regards,

David Sudjiman

If you have overlapping IPs, NAT is the only solution.

If your central services aren't overlapped, you can create VRFs and have those central services with multiple connections into the VRF.

I don't believe we have a step-by-step design for such requirement since they can be a lot of dependencies.

Do yourself a favor and bring some outside help to aid on this migration.
