If an organization places 99% of their addresses behind a firewall do all those not count?If you have a class B and use a firewall, then a /27 should be more than is needed on the global Internet and they should use an address from RFC1597 internally and return the /16.
While that certainly sounds nice from the current context, there are other reasons for wanting unique address space. Things like mergers come to mind, as well as the expectation of better security in ipv6. --- David Miller ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's *amazing* what one can accomplish when one doesn't know what one can't do!
