Any devices that you would wish to participate in the VPN, you'd provision with an IP inside of the /25. Otherwise provision it inside of the /24. The devices themselves would still use a /24 mask but the VPN would only expose half of that range due to it's /25 configuration.<div>

</div></div>You typically use things other than a /32 when you have a LAN connected to a<br>
node running tinc, and you want to make the whole LAN part of the VPN.<br>
<br>
See for example the configuration described in the manual:<br>
