Once upon a time Jerry Russell shaped the electrons to say...
> why does the PM reserve 32 addresses ?

It doesn't, it only reserves the IPs needed for your ports. Part of the
bug is that it climbs beyond it's reserved IPs. It is just that the code
has a hard limit at 32 that even the bug can't climb past.

> Does this mean I have to waste 2 IP's per PM ?

It'll only happen if the bug hits you, and it does seem rare overall.
