Generally, I think that this is done automatically using BGP (MBGP) - I2 only advertises I2 address blocks, so your
campus machines & routers need do nothing special - except you can gve preference to the I2 addresses through the
I2 connections if (as would typically be the case) those connections are higher bandwidth than your "I1"
connections. (Some I2 address blocks are only available through I2, others are also advertised through I1.)

Philip,
No.
The same addresses are used. Thus, a given host on a campus is reachable both via the commercial Internet and via Internet2.

Dear all

For those of you who are in I2-enabled universities in US, can you tell
me whether you are using different IP addresses for access to Internet
and Internet2?

Let me rephrase again, in a certain campus, does it exist two sets of IP
addresses for accessing Internet1 and Internet2 respectively? Answer for
our campus is yes, at least at this moment.

Thank you.
