Have he taken a look at RFC 1149?

BTW, since I haven't posted in a while, I might as well get the most out of
this one -- kudos to the networking wizards who posted yesterday that didn't 
know the difference between 192.0.0.0/16 and 192.0.0.0/8.  I was especially 
amused with the guy who thought it had something to do with RFC 1918.
