RE: Re: Private use of non-RFC1918 IP space

2009-02-02 Thread Matlock, Kenneth L
I've even seen at a previous place (note: 'previous') that decided to
use 40.x.x.x for their internal IP space

I find it hard to believe a company can mismanage their IP space that
10.0.0.0, 192.168.0.0, and 172.(16-31).0.0 are all used up, but then
again, I shouldn't be surprised. 

Back in '96 or so, an ISP I was working at was giving out /24's for a
14.4 dialup account

Some nitwits just grab one out of fat air.

I've seen 192.169.xx and 192.254.xx randomly used before.

There are sometimes good reasons to do this, for instance to ensure


uniqueness in the face of mergers and acquisitions.
