The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) has reserved the following
three blocks of the IP address space for private internets:
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)
We will refer to the first block as "24-bit block", the second as "20-bit
block", and to the third as "16-bit" block. Note that (in pre-CIDR
notation) the first block is nothing but a single class A network number,
while the second block is a set of 16 contiguous class B network numbers,
and third block is a set of 256 contiguous class C network numbers.
