[AusNOG] Connectivity issues with 1.0.0.0/8 address space

[Shane Short]

I figure if anyone's got a chance in hell of getting admins to do it, it'd be bigpond (in .au, anyway). I had a hell of a time getting people to listen to me when I was trying to contact people when we got our allocation within 110/8.

I can think of at least two companies I've consulted to in the last few years who do, and for that matter, 1.0.0.1 seems to be sitting in my upstream's core..  (though the rest of 1/8 heads out across pipe and disappears at as7545.sydney.pipenetworks.com..)
