I used to run an ISP (but I feel much better now). We used one /24 net as
our "transit network", just for router interfaces to our customers who
used dedicated lines. I believe we had 15 or 16 of the /30 (.252 netmask)
networks assigned and actually in use. We weren't done renumbering some
of the older ones when I sold the operation, so there were more, just not
in the same net.
Since then I decided (recently) to try out using "ip unnumbered" on the
Ciscos. Ugh. The configuration is so much simpler, but troubleshooting
becomes a bitch. I'm going back to /30 nets for the links. When you can
use a non-routed network like a 192.168 or something, why inconvenience
yourself?
