Hi all

I read the handbook about netmask for virtual host
It shows as follows
Except the first one using 255.255.255.0
the rest is using 255.255.255.255

Why? and If I use all as 255.255.255.0
what is the problem?

On the other hands, I use it (all 255.255.255.0) in
the virtual hosts in 
eth0.0 eth0.1 in linux

Is it different from freebsd fxp0?

Thank you for your help


ifconfig_fxp0="inet 10.1.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"
     ifconfig_fxp0_alias0="inet 10.1.1.2 netmask
255.255.255.255"
     ifconfig_fxp0_alias1="inet 10.1.1.3 netmask
255.255.255.255"
     ifconfig_fxp0_alias2="inet 10.1.1.4 netmask
255.255.255.255"
     ifconfig_fxp0_alias3="inet 10.1.1.5 netmask
255.255.255.255
