Depending how many hosts you need to run on your network there are huge numbers of possible subnets you could use for an internal network - do yourself a favour and keep off the ones set up be default on every router sold.</text><parent_chain><item><author>sliverstorm</author><text>I kind of like having standard private subnets.

Admittedly, that&amp;#x27;s probably not a problem for parents, friends, etc.&lt;p&gt;At my Old Job I demanded we keep a &amp;quot;registry&amp;quot; of the RFC1918 address space we allocated to Customers. We never allocated Customers in overlapping address spaces. It made VPN connectivity to Customer A while on-site with Customer B much easier. It also helped out in one case where one Customer acquired another.</text><parent_chain><item><author>sliverstorm</author><text>I kind of like having standard private subnets.
