RFC 1918 network range choices

[hardenrm at uchicago.edu (Ryan Harden)]

Interesting you call sections 2,4,5 a security model when section 6 explicitly states "Security issues are not addressed in this memo.â??

Sections 2, 4, and 5 are motivational and design considerations. Using RFC1918 space is not and should not be considered a security practice.
