Sounds like a standard, prudent, response from the Networking People - never give away too much of what you have too easily and never give an impression of having too much of something to give in the first place. :-) How many hipersockets do you have? You'll probably want one class C subnet per hipersocket, but depending on the number of hosts connected to the hipersocket, that might be a waste of addresses. Even if they give you only one class C subnet, you'll get 256 addresses which you can then divide into smaller subnets and use each of those for a particular hipersocket. Ivica Brodaric
