Hi Sylvain,

Is your issue simply with using 128.9.0.0/16 and 128.9.128.5/32 as
examples rather than a prefix reserved for documentation or something
like 192.168.0.0/16? (there is no /16 for documentation purposes
afaik)

It is a bit difficult for me to understand what you mean so please
correct me if I misunderstood.

I assume INR means Internet Number Resource?
