Conventions
This document uses the conventions described in this section.
IP addresses
To avoid IP conflicts that would occur if you used examples in this document with public IP addresses that belong to a real organization, the IP addresses used in this document are fictional. They belong to the private IP address ranges defined by these RFCs.
RFC 1918: Address Allocation for Private Internets
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1918
RFC 5737: IPv4 Address Blocks Reserved for Documentation
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5737
RFC 3849: IPv6 Address Prefix Reserved for Documentation
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3849
For example, even though a real network’s Internet-facing IP address would be routable on the public Internet, in this document’s examples, the IP address would be shown as a non-Internet-routable IP such as 192.0.2.108, 198.51.100.155, or 203.0.113.79.
