I am having a major brain-cloud and it has been many years since I got down and dirty with IP routing, but anyway.
If I have the following netmask: 255.255.255.248 Would my corresponding network be, for example, 192.168.1.0/29 ?
Which would mean 8 adresses, thus 5 usable? If my memoery serves me, /29 means 29 bits for the network segment, leaving 3 for the host address. ie: 2^3 = 8 addresses?
Yes. Except it would be 6 usable, not 5. -- Brad Shelton On Line Exchange http://ole.net Phone: 313-526-1111 Fax: 313-526-3333
