Error in setting up IP address in user account

[dianewalker]

I got the error message when I tried to assign an IP address to a user account (vpn-framed-ip-address 10.10.7.240 255.255.255.255).  The error message was "Error:  invalid IP address/net mask combination" .  Can you see anything wrong with the IP address or the subnet mask?  Here is part of the config.

ip local pool vpnpool 10.10.0.1-10.10.7.240 mask 255.255.248.0

username diane password iikdieiieikdieikdk privilege 15
username diane attributes
vpn-framed-ip-address 10.10.7.241 255.255.255.255

Thanks.

Hi,

Try to put vpn-framed-ip-address 10.10.7.240 255.255.248.0.

But on the other hand, it's pretty big pool, why so big?

HTH

Thanks for your prompt response.  Your suggestion works!!!  So, that is the syntax for subnet mask. We expect 2000 employees to log in to Cisco VPN client at the same time.  That is why we have a large VPN pool.

Thanks.
