We have a 520. We got a card put in the other port. So we have two
addresses assigned already for some reason.

So can I add a 3rd & start adding & mapping without a problem? Can I leave
the others without an issue?

Deb:

You can indeed add addresses easily. Try to make sure your network people are fully aware of it when it happens. That's specifically because you mentioned that the new address will be on a different sub-net.

I've directly experienced unusual behavior of some _other_ devices on the same physical network when two different sub-nets get associated with the same physical port. Just in case, you'll want your network guys to recognize it if it happens.

Newer stuff probably handles it better, but networks sometimes collect odd bits of equipment. No point in adding to their work as they try to diagnose an anomaly.
