IPv4 Address Blocks Reserved for Documentation Abstract Three IPv4 unicast address blocks are reserved for use in examples in specifications and other documents. This document describes the use of these blocks. Status of This Memo This document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for informational purposes.

Introduction This document describes three IPv4 for use in documentation. The use documentation and examples reduces confusion arising from the use of purpose. [RFC1166] reserves 192.0.2.0/24. The allocated for this involving addresses address blocks that are provided of designated address ranges for the likelihood of conflicts and addresses assigned for some other

the first of the three address blocks, other two address blocks have recently been purpose, primarily to ease the writing of examples from multiple networks.

Other documentation ranges have been defined in the IETF, including the IPv6 documentation prefix [RFC3849] and example domain names [RFC2606]. Documentation also makes use of the ranges reserved in [RFC1918]. 2. Terminology The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14, [RFC2119]. 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. 4. Operational Implications Addresses within the TEST-NET-1, TEST-NET-2, and TEST-NET-3 blocks SHOULD NOT appear on the public Internet and are used without any coordination with IANA or an Internet registry [RFC2050]. Network operators SHOULD add these address blocks to the list of nonrouteable address spaces, and if packet filters are deployed, then this address block SHOULD be added to packet filters. These blocks are not for local use, and the filters may be used in both local and public contexts.

The Status of 128.66.0.0/16 Note that 128.66.0.0/16 has been used for However, this block did not appear in the [RFC3330] or its successors, and the block for any special purpose. The block can be assignments with caution. some examples in the past. list of special prefixes in is therefore not reserved used for regular address

Security Considerations This document has no security implications.

IANA Considerations IANA has recorded the allocation of the three address blocks in the IPv4 address registry. No end party is to be assigned these addresses.
