yup, but sometime we need a 255.255.255.255 netmask to forbit the host don't reply to any ARP requests. for example, you have the realservers behind the LVS, if the LVS is running on DR or Tunning mode, you need to bind the VIP on realservers and let the hosts don't reply any arp requests to that VIP.
