Hi
Just a question
What adresses may be used for LANs (netmask 24) not connected to the
internet ?
Somewhere I see 192.168.0.xxx
Somewhere I see 192.168.1.xxx
What's is the good way ?
Thanks

192.168.*.* is reserved for local area use.

As is 10.*.*.* and one or two others.

Most people use 192.168.*.* since it works and some ISPs use the 10.*.*.*
for their internal networks and it makes more sense :)

     172.16.0.0      -   172.31.255.255  (172.16/12 prefix)
     192.168.0.0     -   192.168.255.255 (192.168/16 prefix)
