The first example is okay if its "deny icmp" instead of "deny ip". That still allows traffic to reach those hosts, just doesn't let ICMP through. Although 255 is a valid IP address, its use is, in my view, limited. Denying ICMP packets to those hosts may be considered an acceptable sacrafice by many. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Wayne Bouchard GlobalCenter [email protected] Primenet Network Engineering Internet Solutions for (602) 416-6422 800-373-2499 x6422 Growing Businesses FAX: (602) 416-9422 http://www.primenet.com http://www.globalcenter.net ----------------------------------------------------------------------
