Our new ISP has assigned us a small subnet and has given the router an
IP address equal to the network address.
network: 209.161.204.232
netmask: 255.255.255.252
broadcast: 209.161.204.235
router: 209.161.204.232
machine#1: 209.161.204.233
machine#2: 209.161.204.234
Is this legal?
After setup, I was unable to create a default route to the gateway. The
interface was configured properly, but when doing
route add default gw 209.161.204.232
always returns the error, "network unreachable". To work around this problem
for now, I've set us a 4-bit subnet (instead of only 2 bits) so that the
router address would not match the network address.
