No, I think it's more of a jello-like substance. But apparantly can suck in
and contain things fairly well. :)

Well, here is a more comprehensive list from RFC3330 (an excerpt), I think
Larry was kind of looking for this list within the DocCD so he can refer to
it in the Lab incase it comes up, which is highly unlikely!

But I admire your Brain cells Scott! What on earth is it made of, huh?

2. Global and Other Specialized Address Blocks

   0.0.0.0/8 - Addresses in this block refer to source hosts on "this"
   network. Address 0.0.0.0/32 may be used as a source address for this
   host on this network; other addresses within 0.0.0.0/8 may be used to
   refer to specified hosts on this network [RFC1700, page 4].

   10.0.0.0/8 - This block is set aside for use in private networks.
   Its intended use is documented in [RFC1918]. Addresses within this
   block should not appear on the public Internet.

   14.0.0.0/8 - This block is set aside for assignments to the
   international system of Public Data Networks [RFC1700, page 181]. The
   registry of assignments within this block can be accessed from the
   "Public Data Network Numbers" link on the web page at
   http://www.iana.org/numbers.html. Addresses within this block are
   assigned to users and should be treated as such.

   24.0.0.0/8 - This block was allocated in early 1996 for use in
   provisioning IP service over cable television systems. Although the
   IANA initially was involved in making assignments to cable operators,
   this responsibility was transferred to American Registry for Internet
   Numbers (ARIN) in May 2001. Addresses within this block are assigned
   in the normal manner and should be treated as such.

   39.0.0.0/8 - This block was used in the "Class A Subnet Experiment"
   that commenced in May 1995, as documented in [RFC1797]. The
   experiment has been completed and this block has been returned to the
   pool of addresses reserved for future allocation or assignment. This
   block therefore no longer has a special use and is subject to
   allocation to a Regional Internet Registry for assignment in the
   normal manner.

   127.0.0.0/8 - This block is assigned for use as the Internet host
   loopback address. A datagram sent by a higher level protocol to an
   address anywhere within this block should loop back inside the host.
   This is ordinarily implemented using only 127.0.0.1/32 for loopback,
   but no addresses within this block should ever appear on any network
   anywhere [RFC1700, page 5].

   128.0.0.0/16 - This block, corresponding to the numerically lowest of
   the former Class B addresses, was initially and is still reserved by
   the IANA. Given the present classless nature of the IP address
   space, the basis for the reservation no longer applies and addresses
   in this block are subject to future allocation to a Regional Internet
   Registry for assignment in the normal manner.

   169.254.0.0/16 - This is the "link local" block. It is allocated for
   communication between hosts on a single link. Hosts obtain these
   addresses by auto-configuration, such as when a DHCP server may not
   be found.

   172.16.0.0/12 - This block is set aside for use in private networks.
   Its intended use is documented in [RFC1918]. Addresses within this
   block should not appear on the public Internet.

   191.255.0.0/16 - This block, corresponding to the numerically highest
   to the former Class B addresses, was initially and is still reserved
   by the IANA. Given the present classless nature of the IP address
   space, the basis for the reservation no longer applies and addresses
   in this block are subject to future allocation to a Regional Internet
   Registry for assignment in the normal manner.

   192.0.0.0/24 - This block, corresponding to the numerically lowest of
   the former Class C addresses, was initially and is still reserved by
   the IANA. Given the present classless nature of the IP address
   space, the basis for the reservation no longer applies and addresses
   in this block are subject to future allocation to a Regional Internet
   Registry for assignment in the normal manner.

   192.0.2.0/24 - This block is assigned as "TEST-NET" for use in
   documentation and example code. It is often used in conjunction with
   domain names example.com or example.net in vendor and protocol
   documentation. Addresses within this block should not appear on the
   public Internet.

   192.88.99.0/24 - This block is allocated for use as 6to4 relay
   anycast addresses, according to [RFC3068].

   192.168.0.0/16 - This block is set aside for use in private networks.
   Its intended use is documented in [RFC1918]. Addresses within this
   block should not appear on the public Internet.

   198.18.0.0/15 - This block has been allocated for use in benchmark
   tests of network interconnect devices. Its use is documented in
   [RFC2544].

   223.255.255.0/24 - This block, corresponding to the numerically
   highest of the former Class C addresses, was initially and is still
   reserved by the IANA. Given the present classless nature of the IP
   address space, the basis for the reservation no longer applies and
   addresses in this block are subject to future allocation to a
   Regional Internet Registry for assignment in the normal manner.

   224.0.0.0/4 - This block, formerly known as the Class D address
   space, is allocated for use in IPv4 multicast address assignments.
   The IANA guidelines for assignments from this space are described in
   [RFC3171].

   240.0.0.0/4 - This block, formerly known as the Class E address
   space, is reserved. The "limited broadcast" destination address
   255.255.255.255 should never be forwarded outside the (sub-)net of
   the source. The remainder of this space is reserved for future use.

Search the archives for more detail (I wrote some a while back).

Off the top of my head:

1. RFC 1918 addresses
        10.0.0.0/8
        172.16.0.0/12
        192.168.0.0/1
2. Loopbacks
        127.0.0.0/8
3. AutoNet
        169.254.0.0/16
4. First and Last Class A, Class B, Class C
        0.0.0.0/8
        127.0.0.0/8 (same as loopbacks)
        128.0.0.0/16
        191.255.0.0/16
        192.0.0.0/24
        223.255.255.0/24
5. Multicast & Expirimental
        224.0.0.0/4
        240.0.0.0/4
6. Couple of oddball things
        192.0.2.0/24
        198.18.0.0/15

There were some others that have been deprecated (namely, they've been
assigned to RIR's and end-companies!)

So funny mate!

Actually I feel your pain ... but I can assure you everything will be
alright.

I wouldn't expect Cisco to ask you to do RFC3330 though, except if they
provide this reference in the Lab workbook itself. ie. they could provide a
table similar to that of http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3330.html

The truth is I would save myself the worry craming such lists, CCIE lab is
more articulate than that. You seldom need to cram things, however, you have
to know the basic RFCs such as RFC1918 and RFC1700

I've also searched through the DocCD, can't find any detailed outline of the
RFC3330 addresses, if someone else find something, please let us know.

Many Thanks

Hello,

Was wondering if anyone knew of a reference in the Doc CD that covers the
3330 ranges. I have a requirement to block all ranges defined by this RFC
but can not for the life of me find it on the Doc CD. Would something like
this even be asked knowing it would require the memorization of the specific
RFC's if not found in the CD?? I can see 1918 being asked as it is readily
used throughout but not the 20 or so ranges in 3330.

At this point I have 4 weeks left and can barely remember where my house is
let alone memorizing anything else. Thanks all!

Larry
