Yeah, I agree, but the world seems to prefer plain 4byte (maybe they can read). BTW I have read in many Cisco[1] documents that asdot is made up of (PART1 * 65535) + PART2 However OpenBGP does the math as ((PART1 * 65535) + PART2) + PART1. How can Cisco be wrong again? lol [1]http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/iosswrel/ps6537/ps6554/ps6599/white_paper_c11_516829.html Thanks, Ill do some shell scripting to convert. -- =========== Eduardo Meyer pessoal: [email protected] profissional: [email protected]
