My home network uses a 192.168.1.0/24
subnet, and when I ping 192.168.1.137
I get a response saying the host is unavailable (as expected because I don't have any machines using that address)
However, when I ping 10.10.10.140
it:
- gets a response, and
- goes on forever.
I thought 10.0.0.0/8
were all reserved addresses and that any sort of traffic going to those addresses was dropped. What am I pinging when I ping 10.10.10.140
? Is it IANA servers?
