[44net] use of 44-net behind NAT

from the wiki at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMPRNet: *44.128.0.0/16* *44.128.x.x is the testing subnet and consists of 65,536 (216) addresses. Much akin to 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 169.254.0.0/16 or 192.168.0.0/16, this is an unroutable private IP block<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network>rk>. Connectivity to the rest of the network should be given through router gateways <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gateway_(telecommunications)> much as one would do with Network address translation<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_address_translation> in any other private IP block.* There is no attribution to that statement, and nothing I could find at AMPR.org Is this the best way to address devices when doing NAT into a private network? Any issues? Or are there advantages to requesting assigned numbers? thanks & 73, Jim Alles
