He's asking about what /16 is, and you're talking about classful delegations. I don't think you're answering the question he asked. However, enlighten me if I'm wrong. > But, nowadays, Classes are mainly historical... In reference to the IP block, yes. But if he wants to block everything from 69.2.33.*, he will use a class C mask, regardless of the fact that the 69.0.0.0 network is historically a Class A. Blue skies...
