In the ipcp negotations we do not exchange netmask. From the routers prespective it's always a /32 netmask for a dialup user..

The netmask as seen on the client will vary with the OS on the client.

Some would show a classful netmask and some a /32 netmask, the default gateway will be the ip address the client received (self ip address).

Thanks, Mak.
