Some colleagues and I are running into a bit of a problem. We've been using RFC 1918 Class A space but due to the way subnets have been allocated we are pondering the use of public IP space. As the network in question is strictly closed I don't anticipate any problems with this as the addresses would be unambiguous within our environment. I'm curious if anyone else is doing this.
This is a *VERY BAD IDEA* - why not take the hit now rather than exponentiate the problem and, in so doing, make it nearly impossible to reverse later?
