Pete, RFC1918 is for private addressing. These IP networks or address ranges generally do not flow across the Internet. This is ISP specific. Most of the ISP's drop these packets. There are some who don't. Some ISP's use the RFC1918 to address the WAN links between the customer and them. Heck, my cell phone has one of these addresses. These can, and IMO, should be blocked at your border routers. Robert - - Robert P.
