> Regards, >>> >>> >>> Abe (2024-01-18 22:48) >>> >>> Wow, changes happen when one is busy. When was the acronym "RAN" applied to a "Stealthy Overlay Network"? In my experience RAN is most often a Radio Access Network (military and cellular nets). Return Authorization Number is accepted usage in commerce. I now have several questions: Shouldn't the acronym be SON, except that is also used many places? Why are we discussing a "Stealthy Overlay Network" anyway? If truly is stealthy, it is probably not guided by RFC. What does OpenWRT have to do with this? I saw the beginning of this discussion long long ago. I still do not understand the merits of messing with IPv4 address allocations, especially comparing cost of a limited lifetime "Stealthy Overlay Network" as comparted to actually deploying and using IPv6. Where will be the long term savings? IPv6 has an expected lifetime far in excess of any hacks to extend IPv4 lifetime. Show me the money. - James R Cutler james.cut...@consultant.com
