I have taken a dedicated internet access service from my ISP. for which i received one P2P IP address with a specified gateway, and 6 IP addresses on a /29 subnet. but they havent specified any gateway for these 6 addresses. Further, they say that is an internal range for my account. What does this mean? that these 6 addresses are not public IPs? if so, how do I configure them ? any help would be appreciated.
Answer
You mean that you have a P2P (/30) address between your router and the ISP equipment?
Internal range usually just means that they will be routing the /29 subnet towards your routers P2P IP address.
You'd need to assign the /29 to an interface pointing towards your LAN on the router using one of the ip addresses in the range. Then you can assign the remaining addresses to hosts with a default gateway of whatever address you just assigned on your router interface towards the LAN.
