If you don't need the /32 route then it is best not to have it. Imagine a
network that had hundreds or thousands of these /32 routes in its' routing
table. It's best to have the roting tables as small as possible.

Subject: peer neighbor route

Hi, future ccies,
        I don't really understand the effect of the command "(no) peer neighbor
route" when establishing a dialup connection between two routers. With the
"no..." the routing does not install a connected route (/32) to the
neighbor, but it install a proper route (i.e. a /24) to the same network.
Without, wich is the default option, both (/32 and /24) appear in the
routing table. So what ? I mean, what is the impact of having this route
(/32) ? Everything works in the same way, I think...

Thanks in advance,
Luis Miguel.
