I get the following output from route print:

C:\Documents and Settings\ivadmin>route print

Notice that the Broadcast address for network 192.168.132.208, which has a
28 bit subnet mask is showing as 192.168.132.255, which is wrong. It should
be 192.168.132.223, right?
I'm confused by this output. Can anyone explain it?

Thanks,
