   Simple netmask question, could some one

   Hello,   
      
   I will be setting up a cisco site to site vpn for the first time. I   
   will attempt at creating two sites connecting to the main office.  In   
   order for the site to site vpn to work among site, I will need to have   
   a different subnet per tunner.   
      
   My idea is the following.   
      
   1st site.   
      
      
   Address:   172.16.0.1   
   Netmask:   255.255.255.0   
   Wildcard:  0.0.0.255   
      
   = 254 hosts   
      
   site 2   
      
      
      
   Address:   172.16.0.2   
      
   Netmask:   255.255.255.128   
   Wildcard:  0.0.0.127   
      
   = 126 hosts   
      
      
   Address:   172.16.0.3   
      
   Netmask:   255.255.255.192 = 26   
   Wildcard:  0.0.0.63   
    Hosts/Net: 62   
      
      
      
   Am I correct to say that this setup will meet cisco requirement for   
   separate subnet masks? even although the ip addressing is similar?   
      
   I went from a site with 254 hosts to site 2 with 126 down to site 3   
   with 62 hosts.  Each site has a distintive subnet mask.  I would like   
   to keep each site ip addressing similar as its easy to remenber. Site   
   1 ends with .1 site two with .2 and site 3 with .3   
      
      
   and please pardon my newbiness. I am trying to understand it all as I   
   go.   
      
   thank you.
