I'm not really following the discussion here so much, but in FreeBSD
7.2, it still sets the routes incorrectly from my perspective.
I have in my rc.conf the following:
route_vpn1="-net 192.168 192.168.100.202"
and it results in the following route (from netstat -rn)
Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif
Expire
192.168.0.0/24 192.168.100.202 UGS 0 0 em1
whereas in 7.0 and prior, it resulted in a /16 route as I expected,
and as I understand it should be from the man page.
The man page explicitly states: "-net 128.32 is interpreted as
128.32.0.0" so the man page and the behavior are seemingly
inconsistent (still).
