Re: Companies using public IP space owned by others for internal routing

Had a previous employee or I discovered it on the network segment after we had some weird routing issues and had to get 
that cleaned up. I don't know why anyone would do that when there is tons of private IP space.

Will anyone comment on the practice of large enterprises using non RFC1918 IP space that other entities are assigned

Just curious as to how wide spread this might be. I just heard of this happening with a large ISP and never really 
thought about it until now.
