'172.31.0.0/16', is another way of writing '172.31.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0' (Note: '172.31.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0' is another way of writing '172.31.0.0/24'). and these mean we are describing several networks not several hosts. So, static routing of 172.31.0.0/16 to 192.168.0.252 should be, #route add -net 172.31.0.0/16 gw 192.168.0.252 or if you prefer #route add -net 172.31.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 gw 192.168.0.252 Oscar Plameras http://www.acay.com.au/~oscarp/disclaimer.html -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
