Sure,

csprtd2/csppp.htm#xtocid74439

 

Is your question can you only put the /32 on the ppp interface?

 

Well the answer is no! that is how I solved this task.

 

Q. On what type of interface can you even configure a /32 mask?

 

R4(config-if)# ip address 212.0.0.1 255.255.255.255

Bad mask /32 for address 212.0.0.1

 

LOL

 

LOOPBACK!

Thanks Joe. I am still not fully understand it....Would it work if the /32
ip address is configured on the interface itself? I remember one lab that I
had to configure duplicate IP and it worked...I never understand the logic
behind it.

Do you have a internet resource that I can read?

Thanks.

By default in PPP a /32 "peer" neighbor route is created... this task takes
that into account. Just by PPP LCP bringing up NCP for IP, they will learn
of each others address, which is actually configured on the Loopback.

Got it?

Hello all,
Here's how the question goes:-

Configure R4 and R5 serial int using 167.1.45.4/32 and
167.1.45.5/32respectively. Ensure that R4 and R5 can ping each
other's interface. The
creattion of addtional interfaces is permitted.

The solution creates additional Lo45 interface and use IP unnumbered lo45 on

the PPP s0/1 interface.

Can someone point me to some link or explain to me the logic behind this?

Thanks.
