Subject: iproute2 query

Hi,

Just wondering if the following command should work:

# ip route add 192.168.27.27/24 dev eth0 scope link src 192.168.27.27
RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

However, this command works:

# ip route add 192.168.27.0/24 dev eth0 scope link src 192.168.27.27

192.168.27.0/24 and 192.168.27.27/24 describe the same subnet?

Regards,
Marcus.
