The dialup > user (mostly Win9X) shows a classful netmask. If the address is assigned from a pool, then it is always /32. The dialup user shows a classful netmask because it doesn't know what it's talking about. IPCP (the PPP protocol for negociating IP addresses) negociates a single IP address. Any client that thinks it has been assigned more than 1 address, except where such has been explicitely configured, has serious problems. However: Note that some implementations of PPP place a netmask on the PPP interface because their IP stacks require netmasks to be placed on all interfaces, but the netmask on the PPP interface is not used and has no meaning. -Phil ++ Ascend Users Mailing List ++ To unsubscribe: send unsubscribe to ascend-users-request at bungi.com To get FAQ'd: <http://www.nealis.net/ascend/faq>
