DESCRIPTION

The file /etc/networks is a plain ASCII file that describes known DARPA networks and symbolic names for these networks. Each line represents a network and has the following structure:

where the fields are delimited by spaces or tabs. Empty lines are ignored. If a line contains a hash mark (#), the hash mark and the remaining part of the line are ignored.

The field descriptions are:

name

number

The official number for this network in dotted-decimal notation. The trailing ".0" may be omitted.

aliases

Optional aliases for the network.

This file is read by route or netstat utilities. Only Class A, B or C networks are supported, partitioned networks (i.e. network/26 or network/28) are not supported by this facility.
