************
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.
