    Hi,
    i was wondering if anyone knows what kind of support we have
    in FreeBSD networking code, for non contiguous netmasks.
    While it is trivial to support them for interface addresses,
    managing them in the routing table is probably far from trivial
    and I believe also mostly useless... and anyways, i have no
    idea how our kernel code deals with them

    cheers
    luigi
