Issues encountered with assigning .0 and .255 as usable addresses?

2012-10-22 Thread Paul Zugnoni
Curious whether it's commonplace to find systems that automatically regard .0 and .255 IP addresses (ipv4) as src/dst in packets as traffic that should be considered invalid. When you have a pool of assignable addresses, you should expect to see x.x.x.0 and x.x.x.255 in passing traffic (ie. VIP

As far as I know. There is no RFC based restrictions based on having those as usable IPs. We have been routing customers IP blocks on our network for a while and never had a problem with 0 or .255 as the assigned IP even with Microsoft Windows 2003 as the operating system. Im not sure how to fix

IP tunnel MTU

Hello, Several months ago, there was discussion on the list regarding IP tunnel maximum transmission unit (MTU). Since that time, it has been brought to my attention by members of my company's network operations staff that tunnel MTU is a very real problem they need to cope with on a daily basis
