Right, which means an OUI with a larger number of bits. It's the difference between giving someone a 10.x.x.x network (8 bits in the network portion), or a 10.1.1.x network (24 bits in the network portion). More bits in the OUI, fewer non-OUI bits to make unique addresses. Cheers, Mick The Reverend Jasper P.
