Ah, Priscilla, Priscilla, Priscilla. And all along I respected you because I thought your design thinking had no class. It would be accurate to say 192/8 is the traditional Class C space, with the assumption of a /24 mask. To have shorter masks in that space does imply CIDR awareness, but there can still be significant problems -- and carrier filtering issues -- merely because something is in 192/8. Ironically, I once had a /22 in 192/8, which was generally subnetted into /25's. There were a couple of sites where I could have used a /24, but chose not to because any /24 tends to draw unneeded attention of the Address Vigilantes. > > >>Mike W. >> >>"Kazan, Naim" wrote in message >>news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... >> > Ok, now that we know the answer to that question?
