Maybe I'm doing something stupid, but why is my TC not letting me create an IP address pool starting with .0...
ERROR - Pool operation failed. Attempting to initialize the ip address pool with an illegal address (216.133.96.0).
And this is the other place where 3Com is trying to protect us from ourselves and not accepting a perfectly valid (though uncommon) configuration.
O.K... after a couple days of thought... and some guessing ;-), I have been able to "fool" the TC into giving me what I want... but is it going to bite me in the ass later: I added my ip pool by using the class B designator: add ip pool test initial_pool_address 216.133.96.0/B size 64 instead of: add ip pool test initial_pool_address 216.133.96.0 size 64 And it allowed it. Is this going to have any odd side effects?
