Hello Johan and everyone else. Thank you very much Johan for your short answer. Some posts have confused me even more than I was when posted to the list. I was blaming on my English, could be I was asking it a wrong way. Anyway, thank you all again. I am pretty sure you know what you are talking about :-)) Irina ============== Gary Gatten wrote:
If I understand you correctly I respectfully submit you are incorrect. When using VLSM / classless masks to define a NETWORK, you are correct (I havent checked the math just assuming you are correct). However, when defining ACL type stuff, the proposed /29 would be perfectly OK. That said, Im speaking strictly of my experience with routers, firewalls, etc. If FR supports this I cant say for sure.

you can not to use /29 for 8 IPs because 3 bits have exactly 8 combination ,..x000 is the network and ...x111 is the difusion ,then really you have 6 IPs with /29, you need /28 16 combinations minus two,min 14 IPs for 8 numbers.
I think we should stop the TCPIP training. This is the freeradius list. The user wants to know if /29 can be used. The answer is yes. -- Johan Meiring Cape PC Services CC Tel: (021) 883-8271 Fax: (021) 886-7782 - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
