do other large providers have similar policies? i am a sprintlink
customer and am trying to understand how these policies are implemented
in the industry. thanks.

RFC 1918 Reserved Addresses Disallow 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, and
192.168.0.0/16
0-126 /8 Allow no subnets of historical addresses that were not
announced in July 1995
127-191 /8 Allow nothing longer than /16 (i.e., /17, /18, /19, etc.)
192-205 /8 Allow nothing longer than /24 (i.e., /25, /26, /27, etc.)
206-223 /8 Allow nothing longer than /19 (i.e., /20, /21, /22, etc.)
195 /8 Allow nothing longer than /19 (i.e., /20, /21, /22, etc.)
24 /8 Allow nothing longer than /19 (i.e., /20, /21, /22, etc.)
*The principal change is that we used to disallow /19s in 206/8-223/8 and
195/8, and this was not; in line with the minimal allocation units
performed by the three primary registries
