[ snip ]
The rule for aliases (as outlined in 'man ifconfig') is:
- if the aliased IP is on the same subnet as the primary IP, use the
255.255.255.255 netmask
- if the aliased IP is on a different subnet than the primary IP, use the
appropriate netmask for the aliased IP
So if your 209.190.xxx.xxx IPs are on a /24 network, then you should be
using the 255.255.255.0 netmask.
