This means that Class C space (as such) is going to be used up in a year or two (only 220-223/8 is unallocated). There are still over 60 /8s unallocated after that which means we aren't going to run out for a few years. When the numbers for broadband start working however things could quickly get tight. Still it's a bit off when Defence Establishments have /8s and probally a minimal number of world visable networks while medium sized countries have less. A quick check shows that the following /8s have little or nothing of them advertised into the global routing table. Of course there are probally a few others that have the /8 ad and almost no actual use. 006/8 Army Information Systems Center 008/8 Bolt Beranek and Newman Inc. 011/8 DoD Intel Information Systems 019/8 Ford Motor Company 021/8 DDN-RVN 022/8 Defense Information Systems Agency 025/8 Royal Signals and Radar Establishment 026/8 Defense Information Systems Agency 028/8 DSI-North 029/8 Defense Information Systems Agency 030/8 Defense Information Systems Agency 034/8 Halliburton Company 045/8 Interop Show Network 046/8 Bolt Beranek and Newman Inc. 048/8 Prudential Securities Inc. 051/8 Deparment of Social Security of UK 052/8 E.I. duPont de Nemours and Co., Inc. 054/8 Merck and Co., Inc. 056/8 U.S. Postal Service 215/8 US-DOD -- Simon Lyall. | Newsmaster | Work: [email protected] Senior Network/System Admin | Postmaster | Home: [email protected] ihug, Auckland, NZ | Asst Doorman | Web: http://www.darkmere.gen.nz
