   Sorry, but /24 is now TOO SMALL for a lot of
   businesses, and hard to ORGANIZE for smaller
   entities. Workstations, servers, net-connected
   devices, IOT shit ... /24 isn't BIG enough
   anymore.

   But NOT smooth easy way to like make ".0.x"
   and ".1.x" look like one big smooth network.
