you can not use a /26 address again, if you do that , .120 is in the .64 subnet, then .120 and .65 are in the same subnet,but .65 have the /27 then it thinks .120 is in the diffirent subnet. but ,you need not have to use /30,you can use /29

my msn is maomao snipped-for-privacy@126.com , if you have some question , we can talk about.

That makes sense- Iwas confusing the issue by trying not to waste any host addresses-so if I used VLSM in a /26 subnet (0-63)then used /27 (64-127)in the next- I would need to "fill " the additional 30(usable) addresses (96-127) with either another /27 or 2*/28 or 4*29 or 8*/30.

I hope that is correct.
