Hmm... same subnet...
Michael, you should know better than that. I do not see a subnet mask on these IP addresses. There is nothing stopping a Network Operator from making these /32s and putting them on different networks.
Nothing except community consensus that it is a *BAD* thing to pollute the global routing table with lots of long prefixes.
Could be internally divided within a single external announcement from one AS. However, I think we all know this is nitpicking and the odds that these systems are further apart than about 20 feet approach zero. -george william herbert gherbert@crl.com
