Thanks Gert for your complete answer. It cleared the vague parts but one
still remains! what about ip address like 0.2.3.1 255.255.255.0! what's the
rule for this one?


0.0.0.0/8 doesn't contain any valid IPv4 addresses.

[c-nsp] Not a valid host address error

2012-10-10 Thread h bagade
Hi all,

I want to know in what condition this error occurres when defining ip
addresses on interfaces? I test many IP addresses and diverse error
messages happens which I don't know the reasons. Is there any reference
which I could find the invalid pattern of ip addresses?

some of my tests are:

Router(config-if)#ip address 172.0.3.2 255.255.255.255
Bad mask /32 for address 172.0.3.2
Router(config-if)#ip address 255.0.3.2 255.255.255.255
Not a valid host address - 255.0.3.2
Router(config-if)#ip address 255.0.3.2 255.255.255.0
Not a valid host address - 255.0.3.2
Router(config-if)#ip address 254.0.3.2 255.255.255.0
Not a valid host address - 254.0.3.2
Router(config-if)#ip address 224.10.3.2 255.255.255.0
Not a valid host address - 224.10.3.2
Router(config-if)#ip address 224.10.3.2 255.0.0.0
Not a valid host address - 224.10.3.2
Router(config-if)#ip address 224.10.3.2 239.0.0.0
Not a valid host address - 224.10.3.2
Router(config-if)#ip address 224.0.0.0 239.0.0.0
Not a valid host address - 224.0.0.0
Router(config-if)#ip address 195.0.0.0 239.0.0.0
Bad mask 0xEF00 for address 195.0.0.0
Router(config-if)#ip address 223.0.0.0 239.0.0.0
Bad mask 0xEF00 for address 223.0.0.0

thanks in advance

networking 101?

- don't use IP addresses out of Class D or E space
- don't use netmasks that are not left-contiguous (no 0-bits mixed into
  1-bits)
- don't use /32 masks on anything that's not a loopback
- don't use IP addresses that would be the network or broadcast address
  in a given subnet

In essence, except for the non-contiguous netmask thing don't do things
that are not permitted by the networking-101 text book.  And don't use
IPv4 either.
