I did a traceroute to one of US West's customers... got some interesting results:
13 206 ms 179 ms 123 ms gig0-0-0.phnx-sust1.phnx.uswest.net [206.80.192.253]
14 1016 ms 151 ms 975 ms 207.224.191.2
15 233 ms 124 ms 123 ms 192.168.8.1
16 151 ms 179 ms 123 ms 192.168.100.147
17 247 ms 192 ms 151 ms vdsl-130-13-102-120.phnx.uswest.net [130.13.102.120]
RFC 1918 - "Address Allocation for Private Internets" indicates 192.168.0.0 through
192.168.255.255 (192.168/16 prefix) is reserved
for private internets. Hops 15 and 16 in my traceroute show that addresses within
this range are being used publically.
Did I miss something? Have the "for private use only" IP addresses now been given the
green light to be used within the internet?
