964.0. "TCP/IP adress bug!" by STKAI1::KYLANDER () Fri May 06 1994 10:07

    Hi,
    
    TCP/IP adress question
    
    We have eventually found a bug in the DECrepeater900TM software around
    the tcp/ip adress. Its not possible to give a repeater following tcp/ip
    adress 193.183.255. 193.183.254 is ok, is there a maximum limit ?

964.1What's that address again?QUIVER::GALLAGHERFri May 06 1994 12:0512
Hi Thomas,

I'm not familiar with the notation you're using.  I've always seen four
dotted decimal octets when specifying an IP address.  So I don't know if
193.183.255 is really:

	193.183.255.0, or
        0.193.183.255

The first is a class A address, while the second is a class C address.
Can you clarify this?

This is currently a bug in all our products.  Even the ones we will ship this
wave.  However, we have no need to panic.  We can easily fix this in the
45 day upgrade if enough people think its important enough.
