/32 Mask

Dear All,

Could anyone please explain me the use of /32 mask? When I connect to the Internet via my Mobile phone connected to Laptop (GPRS/EDGE), the following IP with /32 mask gets assigned:

PPP adapter GPRS:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
Description . . . . . . . . . . . : WAN (PPP/SLIP) Interface
Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-53-45-00-00-00
Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.189.10.173
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.255
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.189.10.173

Also the default gateway is same as my own address. Can anyone shed some light on the two points.

Kind Regards,

Obaid
