Hello,
We cannot set our routing tables correct!
We use the freeBSD network stack.
We configure it with a fixed IP adress (172.24.0.0/13) with netmask
255.248.0.0.
But always in the routing table the netmaskk 255.255.0.0 is present??
How is this possible?
Here the result of a print of the routing tables (I use functions that
you can find back on the ecos mailing list):

Televic telnet shell. Welcome.
$> ifconfig

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Our RedBoot uses the 255.255.0.0 netmask, could that explain it?
And when we add the correct route and then delete the wrong route, our
network connection goes away - a ping fails..
Any help is appreciated!
Kind regards,
Jürgen
