Ohio is right. In fact, thinking about this last year led me to the
realization that dotted decimal is *really* base-256 notation. Just as with
binary you need 2 symbols for the different digits, 10 for decimal, and 16
for hex, you would need 256 different symbols for base-256. Since that would
be incredibly cumbersome, an easier solution is to use decimal values from 0
to 255 for each base-256 "digit" and separate them with dots. Speaking of
weird bases, any VTAMers out there use base-32? It's the only time I have
ever run across it.

I'm not sure if this answers your question but:
Area 700 to --> Area 0.0.2.188
The 2 is 2x256=512 Then add 188 to get 700
Another one, how to I convert:
Area 500 to --> Area 0.0.1.244
The 1 is 1x256=256. Then add 244 to get 500.

Hi Group,
Got a quick one (may be I'm having a mind block ;)
If I want to configure OSPF using dotted decimal notation...
How to I convert:
Area 700 to --> Area 0.0.2.188
Another one, how to I convert:
Area 500 to --> Area 0.0.1.244
If anyone can show me how to do the conversion, that would be greatly
appreciated.
Cheers,
H.
