I do not understand why it is so hard to come to terms with the fact that IF you have -- in whatever faith -- chosen to use non-unique address space, you have been taking your chanches that sometime, in the future, you WILL have to renumber to keep the illusion of quasi-uniqueness. This goes for everybody. Customer, operator, middlebox or CPE vendor, and my mother. This is inherent in all non-unique space. A new shared allocation from the RIR pools or Class E will not change this fundamental characteristic. Therefore, 1918 space, being the prime example of non-uniqueness, should be quite suited to populate the inside of a CGN. -- Måns Nilsson primary/secondary/besserwisser/machina MN-1334-RIPE +46 705 989668 Am I SHOPLIFTING?
