---
The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) has reserved the following
three blocks of the IP address space for private internets:


              10.0.0.0        -   10.255.255.255  (10/8 prefix)
              172.16.0.0      -   172.31.255.255  (172.16/12 prefix)
              192.168.0.0     -   192.168.255.255 (192.168/16 prefix)


  We will refer to the first block as "24-bit block", the second as "20-bit
block", and to the third as "16-bit" block. Note that (in pre-CIDR
notation) the first block is nothing but a single class A network number,
while the second block is a set of 16 contiguous class B network numbers,
and third block is a set of 256 contiguous class C network numbers.
