Networking talk follow-up
Thanks to Shawn Houston for the fine networking intro talk.
I'm hopeful that we will be able to continue the thread in future talks.
Just as an informational footnote, I looked up two of the RFCs that
applied to the topics discussed. In brief :
rfc1918 - specifies that the following networks are reserved for 'private'
internets and not routable :
10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 (10.0.0.0/8)
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 (172.16.0.0/12)
192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 (192.168.0.0/16)
rfc2606 - specifies that the following top-level domains are reserved and
not for use on the global internet :
.test
.example
.invalid
.localhost
and the following 2nd-level domains are similarly reserved :
.example.com
.example.net
.example.org
Just in case someone from GCI asks... :-)
