I have created an utun interface(utun5) with address 10.0.0.0, then we installed VPN with address 10.0.0.0/8.
I observed that new utun interface(utun4) created by VPN having the same address 10.0.0.0 only. What is the use of giving CIDR range instead of specific ip?
utun5: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 10.0.0.0 --> 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
nd6 options=201<PERFORMNUD,DAD>
utun4: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1300
options=6463<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,TSO4,TSO6,CHANNEL_IO,PARTIAL_CSUM,ZEROINVERT_CSUM>
inet6 fe80::bed0:74ff:fe37:92be%utun4 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1e
inet 10.0.0.0 --> 10.0.0.0 netmask 0xff000000
inet6 2001:db8:: prefixlen 120
