Granted, that may have been the case many years ago. However, this was not our experience when we obtained addresses, and the ARIN rules as I understand them would not allow such an allocation today.
Thats a huge amnt of wasted space. If our wise and pragmatic leaders (drc, jc, et.al.) are correct, then IPv4 will be around for a very long time. What, if any, plan exists to improve the utilization density of theexistant IPv4 pool?
I believe your question is based on an outdated assumption. -- Dan White
