Re: Whois 172/12
Thanks for the replies so far, but not what I was looking for. I should have specified that I've done several ns & dig lookups just to make sure. We were supposed to have lit up the last of IPv4 last year. I would have presumed that meant that there was nothing left. Since I can't find a reference to 172/12 anywhere, one might be led to presume that it was allocated somehow, to someone (perhaps inadvertently not recorded) since there are - supposedly - no fresh IPv4 addresses left to allocate, and the only reference to this block is that 172/8 is allocated to ARIN. It doesn't even appear in RFC 5735. We all know about 172.16/12 - nothing left of that horse but glue. My question is about 172/12. Where is it, what is it's supposed purpose. I'm almost sure it's an internal box. I just find it better to give a professional answer to "why can't I use this" than just "you can't use this and why is this address scanning you for udp/137 anyway". If someone can point out to me what was done with 172/12 I'd appreciate it. Patrick opined: > Read RFC1918. I didn't remember seeing anything about 172/12 in RFC1918. Looked at it again.

Whois 172/12
Hi all, Tearing what's left of my hair out. A customer is getting scanned by a host claiming to be "172.0.1.216". I know this is bogus, but I want to go back to the customer with as much authoritative umph as I can (heaven forbid they just take my word). I'm pretty sure I read somewhere once that 172/12 was "reserved" or something like that. All I can find now is that 172/8 is "administered by ARIN". Lots of information on 172.16/12, but not a peep about 172/12. If anybody could provide some insight as to the allocation/non-allocation of this block, it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Your future is now, Owen. I have four network devices at my primary television -- the TV itself, TiVo, PS3, and Wii (using the wired adapter). All told, I have seven networked home entertainment devices in my house, with another (Blu-Ray player) likely coming soon. I feel confident in saying that my use case isn't unusual these days. While a lot of the scalability concerns are blown off as "not applying to typical consumers," we're quickly getting to the point where your average joe IS somewhat likely to have different classes of devices that might benefit from being on separate subnets. Jima I helped a friend setup his "home network" recently. He is using an old Linksys Router with no v6 support. I like to be conservative and only allocate what might be needed ... part of my "Defense in Depth" strategy to provide some layer of "security" with NAT (yes, I know - my security by obscurity is to use something from 172.16) and a limited amount of addresses to allocate (not to mention WPA2 - he had default no security when I first got there). Used to be a /29 would be sufficient for any home. But, before I knew it, he had a wireless printer, laptop, and 4 iPhones all needing the new wireless passphrase to connect, plus he was anticipating 2 more laptops (one each for his children - to whom 2 of the iPhones belonged), and addresses set aside for guests and the occasional business visitor (he works from home). I left him configured with a /28, and told him to call me if he anticipated more. As a side security note - we lost the laptop on the "new" secured network before I tracked down that it had automatically logged in to his neighbor's (also unprotected) network on reboot. Ted
RE: thoughts?
pssst ... Anybody wanna buy a block of 240 ... I got /8s, /16s, /24s, even a /32 if you want just one to "frame" ... or you can have the whole 240/4 for such a deal No guarantees they will work, but they are one of those {soon to be rare} unassigned IPv4 addresses you've heard so much about At 12:41 PM 5/27/2010, you wrote: > -Original Message- > From: Roy > Sent: Thursday, May 27, 2010 8:59 AM > To: nanog@nanog.org > Subject: Re: thoughts? > > On 5/27/2010 8:46 AM, George Bonser wrote: > >> -Original Message- > >> From: Dorn Hetzel > >> Sent: Thursday, May 27, 2010 4:11 AM > >> To: nanog@nanog.org > >> Subject: thoughts? > > Don't worry.

The are also rumblings about taking portions of 10/8 and making a national IP address preserve where the addresses must remain unused and in their natural state while a monument to 196.168/16 is planned for the lobby of UN Headquarters in New York. It is hoped that the 10/8 IPs in reserve will return to their original state despite the hard use they have experienced over recent decades. But beware, North Korea has been issuing counterfeit ARIN IP addresses and some third world countries have been found to be trafficking in 0/8 which is extremely dangerous. Addresses recently imported by ARIN from APNIC have been found to actually be 127/8 IPs that have simply had the original numbers scraped off and new numbers so skillfully applied that it is difficult to tell them from the original. Be careful out there. Where does one get an IP address degree?

I would assume this will be the standard definition for a number of years to come. Historically, narrowband was circuit switched (ISDN etc) and broadband was packet switched. Narrowband was therefore tied to the digital signaling hierarchy and was in some way a multiple of 64 KBPS. As the term was used then, broadband delivery options of course included virtual circuits bearing packets, like Frame Relay and ATM. of or relating to or being a communications network in which the bandwidth can be divided and shared by multiple simultaneous signals (as for voice or data or video) That's my humble opinion. Let them use a new term, like "High Speed Internet". Seconded

Re: Comcast problems?
I didn't save any of my Wireshark traces, but this is what I observed (I'm behind Charter at home but visiting my brother in NJ - Comcast territory). All attempts to check my e-mail (neither Charter nor Comcast) showed the syns going out but no syn acks coming back. Then, after a few minutes (pop server time outs I guess) I started seeing fins coming back from the pop server that matched my connection requests. Saw that occur with various http connection attempts as well. Of course, the only reason I can send this reply out is that they appear to be back up. Any chance of getting a non-nonsensical RFO from someone? Ted At 02:16 PM 4/5/2008, you wrote: On Sat, Apr 5, 2008 at 1:44 PM, Steven M.

All joking aside, one hopes that these sorts of things show that the 'p2p control' soutions are far from perfect and far from 'well baked' and likely still very ill-advised. -Chris
