NetView 7.1.4 - I have Fixpack4 on Linux and AIX platforms, plus a base
NV7.1.4 on AIX - same result on all.
I have an environment which includes networks:
172.30.100.0 / 30 bit netmask
172.31.100.0 / 28
172.31.100.16 / 28
172.31.100.32 / 28
I have an entry in location.conf for:
pseudo 172.30-31 Site2
When I create a new map, the 172.31 networks are NOT placed in pseudo
location. I dont see the 172.30 because it is actually a point-to-point
network - that's OK. I have tested putting another, class C network in
the same pseudo location and that works fine. Why don't the networks
starting 172.31 go into pseudo????
I have done a separate test with some class C networks in a range entry
in location.conf and that works fine - I'm sure I've used location
ranges lots of times before!
The really daft thing is....
If I change the location.conf entry to:
pseudo 172.30-32 Site2
Then it works as I would expect - the 172.31 networks go into pseudo.
Fortunately I don't actually have any 172.32 networks that I want to
position elsewhere!
Has anyone else seen this????? I'm assuming it is an artifact of
non-byte-aligned subnet masks. I also remember that there did used to
be an issue with networks ending in .0 - in which case I could
understand if my 172.31.100.0 network got left out but it still doesn't
explain the 172.31.100.16 and 32 networks.
Cheers,
Jane
