On an ethernet (broadcast) network, this makes sense. On NAT, this doesn't. I don't want PF deciding to only use 2 of 4 addresses on a /30. If I ask PF to nat to x.x.x.x/30, I expect it to use all of the /30 because there is no broadcast network at play here. If I use /31, does PF just fail? Alternately, if I specify to NAT to a whole /24, i'd also expect it to use the .0 and .255 addresses. It's common these days to see .0 and .255 as hosts. Chris
