No. It's still a /20 with a single /24 hole punched in it. If the net ends up with a policy that only allows prefixes up to /20 on the backbone then the bozo who moves and won't renumber looses. He may 'own' the address space but it's no damn use to him.
You missed my point, a /20 with a /24 hole in it means we end up having to make multiple routes where there was one. This becomes more work for administrators when creating access lists, etc. Arguably, you can leave the /20 and create a /24 with a different gateway in some circumstances, but this I beleive is also going to be error prone. -Chris --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
