"0x" denotes a hexadecimal number rather than decimal.

That indicates that the notation in use is hexadecimal for the registry
number i.e. 0x2102 set the registry bits to 110010

I think the question is what does the '0' specifically refer to? We
know that 0x indicates hex, but I'm guessing he's asking why we don't
simply use x instead of 0x, or d for octal instead of 0d.
Speaking of that, why is octal 0d? I'd think that 'd' should mean
decimal.

I think editors like to thrown in leading zeros. For example, you will
notice that they never let you get away with saying something like .534. It
has to be 0.534. Supposedly that's easier to read.
I didn't know octal was 0d. I bet they had to do that because of the other
rule that you have to

0x means that the number is in hex. So for example 0xFF is equal to 255.

We need to find an old ibm'er for that answer I think. I know that 0x has
been used on ibm systems since before cisco made it's first router.

In Cisco devices - most probably the same notation as used in C
programming language. Why is that way in C is computer history and I think
that I missed that class :-)
