I've seen RIPE allocate /20s under the proviso that the customer use
the first /23 now and apply to use the rest of the space as they grow
Not necessarily. Don't forget that exchangecolo is in Hunters Point:)
so its not totally unusual for people to put their networks in the hood.

The MAE, later MAE-East, began as FOIRL, which was 10mbps Ethernet over
fiber. Later it was upgraded to a shared FDDI ring with Ethernet attached
segments; later still, a mix of switched FDDI and switched 100Base-T and
GigE. The FDDI por

fddi, some remote with netedge boxes at either end of an atm link.
There were some 10baseT connections too, there was at least one
low end Catalyst switch dedicated to plain ethernet.
Here is a big hint:
