Everyone knows that the Private IP Address Ranges are:
10.0.0.0/8
172.16.0.0/12
192.168.0.0/16
I've just found out (a few days ago) that the Private AS Range is:
64512 to 65535
Much to the chagrin of my predecessor who used a Public AS number (Some HP
company) with the 192.168/16 private IP address range, not that there is
anything wrong but I like to be consistant. (and who gets stuck with the
renumbering of the AS?.... wasn't all that hard... just time consuming, no
downtime allowed)
And YES, from what I can tell private AS numbers can be BGP advertised into
another AS with the AS information stripped so it looks like your AS is in
your providers AS. Of course, as long as your IP network is public....
Just a tidbit....
