We are announcing our /19 network as one block via BGP through AT&T, not broken up into smaller announcements. Earlier in the year I started receiving complaints that some of our client systems were having problems connecting to different web sites. After much troubleshooting I noticed that in every instance the xlate in our Cisco ASA for the client's IP last octet was either a 0 or 255. Since I am announcing our network as a /19, the subnet mask is 255.255.224.0, that would make our network address x.x.192.0 and the broadcast x.x.223.255. So somewhere the /24 boundary addresses were being dropped. Just curious if anyone else has seen this before.
Yes, actually there are people over Internet blocking all IP's ending with 0 or 255 as a kind of bogon or other old wives' tale. -- Grzegorz Janoszka
