I don't quite know what you mean, but /32 is the single (host) IP, much
like:

192.168.1.3/24 == 192.168.1.1 - 192.168.1.254 (entire 192.168.1 network)

and:

172.16.28.18/16 == 172.16.0.1 - 172.16.255.254 (entire 172.16 network)

...what you had was the entire 217. network ;)

Appending a /32 to an address means this address, and only this address.

Steve
