sooner or later we will have to kill off the /24's, which make up 70% of the routing table but offer way less than 10% of the total reachable destinations. perhaps now that address ownership has been put to bed, the gang of big providers can agree on a date after which they will all stop listening to or exporting any prefixes longer than /23? THAT would be the incentive the industry needs to look at private addressing and aggressive renumbering. who's willing to risk collusion lawsuits and lost customers? step right up and sign the register please.
I'm not sure if this is the most completely wrong place to ask this question, so please forgive me if it is, but I'm not sure where else to ask it... As someone who's about to renumber a public school district from a /24 to something else, what would be the smallest network to get (from InterNIC) that would pretty much be guaranteed to be routed for the next few years? I'm thinking a /22 at the moment, but am not sure. Granted the best solution would be go to our provider (all the schools in Santa Clara County, CA go through the county office of education for internet access) and have them get an /18 or something and distribute that, but they don't seem to want that. Should I push them for this solution?
