[c-nsp] Cisco 1700 as a vpn server

[Reuben Farrelly]

I am not certain but I *think* this might be just the way Windows clients 
appear to handle VPDN type access.  I bet if you use a 192.168.0.0 address 
you'll see a class C sized mask appear in the Windows routing table 
instead, regardless of what mask you specify for your pool.

Having said that, it's not really a problem as the router will proxy-arp on 
behalf of the client when contacting LAN IP addresses, and Windows will 
forward anything not for itself even if on the same subnet, back to the 
router going the other way.  It is a Point-To-Point type link, afterall.

Are you seeing any specific problem?
