It's an interesting point that they're using a Class A address space for the country, but it's also North Korea... are we really expecting all of its citizens to be on this?
Either way they'll probably run into issues down the road but I'm sure it's working just fine for them right now. Of course, my knowledge of how distributed their network infrastructure is across their country is lacking so maybe it does cause issues for them?
- digi_owl 10y agoIt would not surprise me that any large office or such is using the B or C ranges on top of the A range being national.
- inopinatus 10y agoIt would not surprise me that a large office is using the 10/8 range internally and NATting to the national 10/8 range and suffering from horrible ICMP misrouting issues.
- Symbiote 10y agoA large office could easily use some allocated range, like 25/8 which is allocated to the UK Ministry of Defence but not advertised on the public Internet.
- Laforet 10y agoYou have to be careful though, last year a good number of companies was burned when DoD started to route their previously unutilised class A block 11.0.0.0/8. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10006534 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10006534
