 PH>> Thanks, it also seems based on Deon's feedback I can run with the following
 PH>> route crash boss 21:1/190.*

 PH>> (Right Deon?) but I am wondering could/should I also have a noroute for 21:1/190 stated before or after this from completeness? Something like..
 PH>> route crash boss 21:1/190.*
 PH>> route crash noroute 21:1/190

 DG> Right, but you dont need the "noroute" option as well (I dont) - because you are "the" hub for 21:1/*.

So to clarify, it should be suffice to have "route crash boss 21:1/*" - because you are the hub for 21:1/* - which will ensure all downstream points get their mail from their boss (your downlink).

(I have only 21:3/* for me.)

Now if you have points hanging off your address 21:1/100.*, then you may want a "route hold noroute 21:1/100.*" *above* the catchall 21:1/* (so that it matches first - order is important).
