Hello all, This is a little off the topic of 44 network, but I am curios. The 44 network is split into many regions for Amateur Radio to use. But does anyone know on how the10.x.x.x network is assign to Amateur Radio Ham Mesh network? Is there someone or a group that have the responsibility on dishing ip addresses? Sorry for the band width, but just curios.

Officially 10.x.x.x/8 is a private network address, like 192.168.x.x/24 and 172.16.0.0/12, and, together with 169.254.0.0/24 (zeroconf assignation) should NEVER leave a private, isolated network. IMHO this should also be the case in the AMPR world and those addresses should never be forwarded to "unaware" hosts.
So if you want to interlink with other sites using this subnet, you can of course do it, but this is not regulated, and the above actions should be taken.

The ham meshnet folks use net 10 internally; they assign the addresses by a formula. They don't have a central IP authority. I don't recall the exact formula and whether it's based on an encoding of the callsign or the location of the station, but it was explained in a paper they published in a past TAPR DCC, either 2013 or 2014. - Brian
Hi,
In Poland we use 44.165.xxx.xxx to local Mesh networks (base on OLSRD, BATMAN or BABEL) on 2.3 and 5.6 GHz and for this reason each mesh node can connect with others from 44/8 network
