The two items are separated by any number of SPACE and/or |
| |
|
25 |
TAB char acters. A __#__ at the beginning of a line |
| |
|
26 |
starts a comment which extends to the end of the line. The |
| |
|
27 |
''Ethernet-address'' is written as |
| |
|
28 |
''x'':''x'':''x'':''x'':''x'':''x'', where |
| |
|
29 |
''x'' is a hexadecimal number between __0__ and |
| |
|
30 |
__ff__ which represents one byte of the address, which is |
| |
|
31 |
in network byte order (big-endian). The ''IP-number'' may |
| |
|
32 |
be a hostname which can be resolved by DNS or a dot |
| |
|
33 |
separated number. |
