Private Address Space
Definitions
Private Address Space is a DNS and IP Addressing term for IPv4 address ranges reserved for private internets that are reused inside homes, companies, labs, and clouds without being globally routed. It helps people and agents name the signal, source, and safe next step without pretending an automation, campaign, DNS record, RFC, or network path did more than the evidence shows. Source context: IETF DNS technology; RFC 1918 private address space; RFC 6598 shared address space.
“Private Address Space let the lab build a network without accidentally borrowing Google's mailbox.”
