Hi Bruce,

I am surprised that nobody has even suggested using IPv6 to you - obviously
IPv6 is designed exactly for your problem. I realise it's a little early
for IPv6, but I would think IPv6 would be very much worth considering -
especially since the mobile 3G standards don't even talk about IPv4. You
can get address space for IPv6 and there are protocols in place that support
IPv4 to IPv6 conversion.

There is a good presentation on IPv6 at

Subject: Using Public Addresses Internally

My company wants to use public addresses from the Class A range internally.
I
realize the danger if these routes got advertised on the Internet, but is
this
something that is considered acceptable if it is carefully done to prevent
the
risk of these routes being propagated out on the Public Internet? These
networks will be used to address equipment in a multitude of cellular radio
base stations around the country and they will only be connected to our
network. There will central locations where users from the internet could
access a database which will query these systems, but there will not be a
direct internet connection. I would appreciate any advice on this.

Thanks,
