RFC1918 is a set number of IP addresses. If you are working on a private

RFC1918, and IPV6 private addressing is not an option, what can you do? (I
know it's a stretch, but I think it asks specifically what Brennan wants
to know and what I'm curious about now)

As a related question I guess I'd ask what sort of simulation requires
more than 16.7 million discreet ipv4 adresses (1/256 of the whole) in
order too simulate a reasonable subset of the whole ipv4 internet.
