suggest /31 subnetting.
This is from section 4 of RFC3021

Hi,
How about a direct address 10.10.10.10 255.255.255.255 is that not the same as
10.10.10.10/32
I would agree /31 is useless in a real situation you would only have a network and a
broadcast address and no node room.

Yes, but on a point-to-point link, so what if you use the network number
and broadcast address to identify the two nodes? If one station sends to
the broadcast address it's not a problem, there's only one other station
anyway! I think /31 should be allowed on point-to-point links.

Try wrapping your minds around this:

Historically, /31 addresses, with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.254,
were not usable because they only had
All what's mentioned here is absolutey right, however use of /31 is allowed
in routing tables, for example.
Assuming the case when 2 routers are dual homed to each other serial serial
0 & serial 1 of each.
You want all the traffic to use serial 0 except 2 specific hosts (mission
critical servers)
I have no idea why this would ever be used. This would allow 0 valid hosts.
/30 masks are often used for Point-to-Point links since they allow for 2
hosts.

Michael...
/30 = 4 address (1st is network number, 2 & 3 host ip's, 4th is broadcast
address)
/31 = 2 address (1st is network number, 2nd is broadcast address)
no host ip's...this is not useful..
/32 = 1 address (1 host address) i use this for loopbacks

AFAIK you can only go as far as /30.
