IP Addressing Scheme
If your IP network will be connected with other IP networks worldwide, you
must use assigned IP addresses. Otherwise, you can build your own IP
addressing scheme.
Assigned Addresses
Hewlett-Packard strongly recommends that if you intend to integrate your
network with other IP networks or to expand your network in the future,
you use assigned addresses. There is a formal process to obtain assigned
unique IP addresses for networks worldwide. Contact Government Systems,
Incorporated (GSI)—formerly known as the DDN Network Information
Center, or NIC—by phone, mail, or electronic mail as shown below. They
will provide instructions and the necessary documents to assign and register
your IP addresses.

If your network is isolated and will not ever be connected to any other IP
networks, you can build your own IP addresses. If you use your own
addressing scheme, be aware that any connection to another IP network
could cause communication problems on both networks. The addressing
scheme on the two networks must be compatible, and
each address must be
unique
.
