  ************

  Hi! I was reading the guide on the "Get me a network" bits, and I
  realized that the whole manual is using the wrong address ranges.

  RFC5737 defines three ranges for use in documentation:

  3.  Documentation Address Blocks

     The blocks 192.0.2.0/24 (TEST-NET-1), 198.51.100.0/24 (TEST-NET-2),
     and 203.0.113.0/24 (TEST-NET-3) are provided for use in
     documentation.

  These are non-routable addresses, even privately, and the RFC is
  specifically provided to avoid problems like overlap (If everyone uses
  the 10.x ranges because that's what's in the manuals, we end up with
  even more overlap than usual).

  https://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5737.txt

  It's worth noting that the manual _is_ compliant with RFC3848, which
  defines the IPv6 documentation range as 2001:db8::/32.
