This is a pretty moronic question, but I've been searching RFC's on- and-off for a couple of weeks and can't find an answer. So I'm hoping someone here will know it offhand.I've been looking through RFC's trying to find a clear statement that having two interfaces in the same subnet does not work, but can't find it that statement anywhere.The OS in this case is Linux. I know it can be done with clever routing and prioritization and such, but this has to do with vanilla config, just setting up two interfaces in one network.I would be grateful for a pointer to such an RFC statement, assuming it exists.
Why would an RFC prohibit this?Most _implementations_ do, but as far as network "rules" in general it is a valid configuration.
