Brennan,

If you want your routes to be human parse'able, I recommend running your lab in full IPv6 mode.  That way you take 
Valdis's recommendation to a whole new level (and base number system).

Plus...  Whats the point of having a lab that only uses 1982/1983 addressing techniques (1/8, 10/8, 100/8 are classfull 
addresses).  Labs are meant to push the limits of todays technology and experiment with future concepts.  IPv6 matches 
that criteria.

Martin

one of the things I want to do is make it much
easier to "parse visually" my route tables.

Might want to use networks 4/8, 16/8, and 64/8 - they stand out
nicely when looking at net numbers in hex or binary. ;)
