We checked with IANA, ARIN, and the US DoD regarding 7.0.0.0/8. We were told that this netblock should not see the light of day,10/8 used to be a DoD address block, but it was also used exclusively in their blacker networks and similar non-connected infrastructure. The result is that 10/8 was opened up for others to use as well. Could we do similar with 7/8?
I don't remember the ARPAnet being one of their blacker networks. That was what had 10/8 IP addresses. Now, 10/8 is open for nobody to claim as their own public IP addresses. As I understand it from previous responses, however, 7/8 is being used as such (publicly advertised IP address space, just perhaps not at this time all advertised to the public Internet). -- Joe Yao Analex Contractor
