1.1.1.1 and Other Simple Addresses

March 5, 2019
#ipv4 #services #about

System administrators use very often "simple" IP addresses on the equipment for test purposes. E.g. address 1.1.1.1/24. Sounds like a big deal? No, it's just a random address that can be typed on the keyboard simply and quickly and is quite suitable for test purposes. And even if you read examples in the set up documentation you may often come across Router1 IP 1.1.1.1, Router 2 IP 2.2.2.2. However, the effect of such settings may be rather unexpected. For example, on March 23, 2018, the public DNS service from CloudFlare using the address 1.1.1.1 was disrupted. Let's see what about other "simple" addresses and prospects for their use.
