IP backbone numbering/naming

[Steve Rude <steve () rudedogg com>]

Hi All,

I am trying to collect information about using RFC 1918 space on an ISP 
backbone.  I have read the RFC several times, and I don't see where it 
says that you cannot use 10/8 space to number your backbone links (/30s).  

I know this is an old thread that has been rehashed several times, but can 
anyone please send me links or information that I can use to convince my 
boss that we should use our arin alloc'd space on our backbone instead of 
using private space.

Also if anyone has opinions on naming conventions for backbone such as why 
to or why not to even have dns resolution for your backbone and some 
conventions please let me know.

TIA!
