Public IP addresses

Posted on November 2, 2012 · 2 Comments

Why on earth would you want to waste public IP addresses for users on a guest WLAN. Think about it for a moment. Don’t be part of the problem.

    My university does this, but then again, they have their own /16, of which maybe two or three thousand addresses are in use.

    My university does this as well. They have a /16 and in most of the wireless network the addresses are NATed anyways!! So my laptop’s IP address is a public address that then gets NATed. What a waste!!
