So I was having a conversation with a friend on how hlds claims that sv_lan
only works with Class C Address space. This is an epic fail if it is indeed
true. RFC 1918 does define private address space in Classes A, B, and C.
Thus a LAN Party could easily use any of the following private address
spaces:
10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 (10/8 prefix)
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 (172.16/12 prefix)
192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 (192.168/16 prefix)
(Note, taken from RFC 1918 section 3 - http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1918)
For those who are not well versed in networking, the above 10/8 is a Class A
range, 172.16/12 is Class B, and 192.168/16 is Class C.
Thoughts?
