loopback with netmask 255.255.255.255 visible for all network



Hi all,

I have many virtual machines on a host and another server in the same
network 10.0.0.0/24.
One of the virtual machine has IP address/24 on eth0 and additional IP
in the same network, but with mask 32

ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
ifconfig lo:1 10.0.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.255 up

What can be the reason I can see 10.0.0.2 from external host?

Thanks in advance,
Artur
