Re: (FWD) Re: Dirserver believes your ORPort is unreachable



RFC1918 ranges do not include networks that are unnassigned by RIRs.
Networks documented in 1918 will *never* be assigned.

If you are fltering on netblocks unassigned by registries, you 
should be aware of when they do become allocated/assigned, or stop 
doing that.
