<sarcasm> It's a good thing we don't have an IPv4 address shortage going on, gotta use all that extra IP space for something! </sarcasm> But honestly, cute and a nice touch. I just get this twitch in my neck when I see stuff like that - same twitch I get when I rdns scan a subnet used for IRC vanity host names.

Welcome to the end of 2014. If you are going to do a silly traceroute thing that has been done thousands of times before, at least use this new fangled thing called: IPv6 Here is the Wikipedia page for you to get started on it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6 Thank you for wasting IPv4 space btw, that way IPv6 has to be there earlier, and as you don't have IPv6 yet, good luck with your business ;) Greets, Jeroen

Why would one bother with IPv4? Just start using IPv6, that IPv4 stuff will disappear over the next few decades by itself.
Now, *that* would be a really nice holiday gift to the net.
A /17 would only last a few moments, not worth the effort of recovering it. Though indeed the reason why CGNs are being deployed is so that the business parts of the same company can charge extra for public IPv4s. On 2014-12-24 20:21, Ken Chase wrote:

Well then, the waste of a /24 doesn't *actually* matter then, does it? :)
Just start using IPv6, that IPv4 stuff will disappear over the next few decades by itself.
(And I *did* "just start using IPv6" - I helped my employer put it in production *last century*. Glad to see the rest of the world finally catch up. :)

At least you’re only having problems with the IPv6 version, I’ve spent about an hour trying to get the IPv4 version of fakeroute working and I just can’t. I even tried a few different ones. Does anyone have a version that works? I have some fun things I’d like to do with it ;) Ammar.

This one uses only 1 IPv4, so can't be accused of wasting half of internet address space :-) http://http://www.vaxination.ca/temp/train.gif This is an old 1980s ASCII art from VMS that ran on VT220s, digitally restored to animated Gif. (script to slowly dump content to xterm, while quicktime is recording the screen, then off to Adobe Premiere for cropping, scaling, and of course, giving it the CRT look by making it amber text of black background :-) A flash version was also created by twitter: https://twitter.com/jfmezei/status/547300803779002368/photo/1
