Random boredom thread - ip ranges?

[Kol]

Out of interest, what IP range (for want of a better expression) do you use? I notice it varies a lot between personal use and that of say an institution.

When I first started using networks, I always used 192.168.x.x , but just because it's neater I have all my machines on my network with static ips in the 10.0.0.x range. I also noticed a few unis I've been to, including my own, use 152.x.x.x ip ranges.

Is there any particular advantage?

your uni is on a 152 range? that isn't a private range, is it a JANET range or something?

Could be 172. now I think of it, although it could be a janet range. Apologies.
