        Some providers even use /31s on peering interfaces
if the other side can also.  Most modern router software
supports this feature.

Hi all,

Just (mostly) out of personal curiousity - is anyone here running any
PtP links using 31 bit prefixes rather than the /30's we're all happy
with?

If you go "huh?" take a look at rfc3021 - "Using 31-Bit Prefixes on
IPv4 Point-to-Point Links"

Thanks,




Adrian
