240/4 is tainted. The fact that some code exist somewhere to make it work is good, but the reality is that there are tons of equipment that do not support it. If you believe that, then don't use it. But don't dictate to me and everyone else what we can and cannot use in our networks. If

I'm trying to avoid setting the expectation that 240/4 is just a simple extension to 10/8 and thus people should use it *today* when they run out of space in RFC1918. I don't believe you. If you were really trying to avoid setting the expectation then you would be communicating with the

An interesting tidbit of information: While traveling home via phx last night their free wireless was using 1.1.1.1 as the web auth portal. Perhaps this means that 1/8 is tainted as well? Jared Mauch On Oct 17, 2007, at 5:42 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: If you were really trying to

the other point as was mentioned later in the thread is that this buys you very little in terms of time before v4 is gone. On average, it buys everybody very little time. But that assumes that 240/4 is being released as a general solution for everybody. This is not the case. We want to

What ever happened to pushing on the traditional class A owners to free up their address space? I can't help but think that the issue has always been mis management of the early assigned address blocks. Look at Nortel's block for instance... How many addresses are actually reachable directly

Asking the whole internet to support 240/4 is going to tie up valuable resources that would be far better off working on IPv6. Keep in mind that it's not just software patches. Software vendors don't do stuff for free. I doubt ISPs are going to pay huge amounts of money to support a
