Who wants to say it?
Okay I will, since I didn't hear any voices in my mind.
The IP Addresses 123.456.789.0, and 123.456.789.1 are not plausible IP
Addresses, the IP Address is limited to 255.255.255.255, but I am not sure. I
haven't checked what roll over does to IP Addresses, so I can't give you an
exceptable value.
