I don't think there is a way to do what you are attempting....the difference
between non-broadcast and point-to-multipoint is that the router assumes a
full-mesh of virtual circuits with non-broadcast...Since it assumes every
router can communicate with every other router in the cloud, there would be
no reason to generate host routes (it would be like generating host routes
in an ethernet environment). If somebody knows of a way, I'd love to hear
it, but my first inclination is to say that this isn't possible. Where are
you taking your test? I'm in RTP on Sunday and Monday.
