IE 2000 assign IPs from DHCP pool to Ports on switch

[ineedhelpbad]

I have been manually trying to assign IP addresses to ports on my switch using the following on the CLI:

conf t

int fa1/1

no switchport

ip address 11.200.1.49 255.255.255.0

no sh

end

conf t

int fa1/2

noswitchport

ip address 11.200.1.50 255.255.255.0

then i am told that this overlaps with fast ethernet1/1

I am trying to assign each port a unique IP address increasing sequently from 11.200.1.49 -> 11.200.1.58

I am not familiar with networking but it was recommended to me to create a dhcp pool and auto assign the ports from that.

If that is not an acceptable solution I am interested in anything that would work.

Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

 - Well that overlaps because the last octet remains 'open' , but if you need to addresses to ports in 'user' mode (with hosts connected) , you don't need all of that , just use a dhcp-server (service) setup.

Marce,

Thank you for the response. I am quite new to this and don't really understand what the issue with the last octet being 'open' is. How can i close it? Also how do I use a dhcp-server (service) setup? Is that something that can be done from CLI?

Thanks

 - You need to get more familiar with basic networking tasks, a normal port does not need an address (simply stated) , here is an example for setting up a dhcp server :

                                Perhaps you might consider taking courses and training.
